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.

Researchers have crossed two true-breeding lines of peas that differ in the color of their leaf tissue: dark green vs pale green
amid [387]

Answer:

150 individuals

Explanation:

If the dark phenotype is determined by a dominant allele at a single locus, the ratio of dark green phenotype to pale green phenotype at F2 should be 3:1 according to the Mendelian standard.

200 to 3:1 = 150:50

<u>Hence, if 200 F2 individuals were characterized, one would expect the number of dark green individuals to be 150 while the pale green would be expected to be 50.</u>

Compare and contrast the structure of the sun with that of the Earth
Arada [10]

Structure of Sun:

The sun has six layers.

Three layers named as

• Corona

• Chromosphere

• Photosphere

These layers comprise the sun’s atmosphere or outer layer.

The other three layers namely

• Connective zone

• Radiative zone

• Core

Comprises the inner layer or part of sun that are not seen.

Structure of earth:

The structure of earth is divided into layers and these layers are both physically and chemically different.

The earth has an outer solid layer called crust, a viscous layer called the mantel, a liquid layer that is outer layer called outer core and solid center called inner core.
