How does Glucose get into the cell?

Biology
1 answer:
Alex_Xolod [135]3 years ago
3 0

Glucose gets into the cells through a process called facilitated diffusion. This is a transport mechanism in which carrier proteins shuttle molecules across the cell membrane without using the cell's energy supplies and so it is called passive transport. The carrier proteins bind to  glucose, which causes them to change shape and translocate the glucose from outside of the cell membrane and into the cell.

(a) glucose is important because it is the primary source of energy for the cell.

(b) Glucose is  6 - carbon monomer of  starch. It is a sugar.

(c) Glucose is broken down to pyruvate through the process of glycolysis.

Describe the mutation in a plant that could have a negative outcome for the organism
iris [78.8K]
A mutation in a plant that could cause negative outcomes could be the plant has less leaves, or isn't hardy enough, like other plants. It would die. A plant from an area like Chernobyl, that has been affected by radiation could poison other animals, or pass that gene along, and ultimately kill that strand of plant.
