Glucose provides energy for cells. Different cells have different mechanisms for glucose intake. Intestinal cells contain protei

ns that transport glucose against its concentration gradient. These proteins couple the movement of glucose to the movement of sodium down its concentration gradient. Red blood cells have transporter proteins embedded in their membranes. When bound by a glucose molecule, these proteins change shape and allow glucose to move down its concentration gradient into the cell. Based on this information, what type of transport is used for glucose in blood and intestinal cells?

The answer is; active transport in small intestines and passive transport in blood cells

In passive transport, no energy is required to transport the glucose molecules because they spon6tanosuely move down their concenntrati0n gradient. The transport protein in the blood cell membrane only enables the molecule to pass across the hydrophobic layer of lipid in the membrane and into the cell.

In active transport, energy is required in the transportation of glucose against their concentration gradient (glucose is highly concentrated in the lumen of the intestines than in the bloodstream). Sodium/Potassium (Na+/K+) pumps play a significant role in the transport of glucose. When sodium diffuses back into the cells, they drag along glucose molecules  with them across the sodium-glucose transporter protein.

kvasek [131]

Answer:

As blood enters the artery, the walls of these vessels expand and contract, which can be felt as the pulse where the arteries run close to the body surface. As blood enters the artery, the walls of these vessels expand and contract, which can be felt as the pulse where the arteries run close to the body surface. It is common to detect the pulse with a few fingers placed on the radial artery on the wrist, or the carotid artery in the neck. Because the walls of the arteries pulse whenever the left ventricle contracts, the pulse rate generally indicates the cardiac function, which is normally between 50 and 85 in a healthy adult.

What are DNA machines, according to Kraves?
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

they are machines or devices build to find la DNA trace and copy it multiple times.

Explanation:

DNA machines are machines built to find a DNA line and copy it multiple times, so scientists can read, observe, and find information about the DNA strand. For example, DNA machines can determine if someone is related, if someone has cancer, and it can distinguish a person’s ancestry. Mainly this is how forensic science uses to determine when there's a suspect in a crime.
