Answer:

facilitated diffusion

Explanation:

Since glucose is a large molecule, its diffusion across a membrane is difficult. Hence, it diffuses across membranes through facilitated diffusion, down the concentration gradient. The carrier protein at the membrane binds to the glucose and alters its shape such that it can easily to be transported.

Answer:

Instead, the energy is provide by the concentration gradient, which means that molecules are transported from higher to lower concentrations, into or out of the cell. The carrier proteins bind to glucose, which causes them to change shape and translocate the glucose from one side of the membrane to the other.

A client with severe burns and injuries from a bomb blast is admitted in the emergency unit. which triaging priority is preferab
mafiozo [28]
The patient should be triaged in "critical", color coded as red. This is because a bomb blast can lead to multiple gross organ damages such as fractures (pelvic fractures most commonly produce the greatest amount of internal hemorrhage which can lead to shock), liver and spleen rupture that can cause hemorrhagic shock, and burns that can predispose the patient to fluid lose and electrolyte imbalance which then, if untreated, will lead to kidney and cardiac compromise. 

Other triaging priorities for other patients include urgent and non-urgent cases.

What is the final electron acceptor og the electron transport chain?
enyata [817]
The electron transport chain refers to the transfer of electrons from electron donors and electron acceptors. After the transfer of electrons, these electrons then couple with protons (H+ ions) across a membrane. In eukaryotic cells, electron transport chains occur within the mitochondrial membrane where it serves as the site of oxidative phosphorylation that uses ATP as its energy source.  
<span>
The molecular oxygen is the final acceptor of electrons in an electron transport chain. This type of transport is used by the cell in extracting energy through redox reactions that occur during photosynthesis, sugar oxidation, and cellular respiration. </span>

How might a country run out of water​
AlexFokin [52]

Answer

Along with decreasing rainfall comes rising temperatures. By 2050 the U.S. could be as much as 5.7°F warmer, and extreme weather events, such as heatwaves and drought, could be more intense and occur more frequently. As temperatures warm, evaporation increases, further decreasing water in lakes, reservoirs, and rivers.
