Question
- following the digestion of food:
△ = glucose molecule
cell (with three △)
blood (with more △)
a. where is the higher concentration of glucose – blood or cell?
b. glucose travels through helper proteins in the cell membrane. identify this specific type of cell transport.
c. is this active or passive transport?
d. use an arrow to illustrate the movement of glucose molecules.
- movement of large particles into the cell:
image of cells with particles moving in
a. identify the specific type of transport being illustrated.
b. how are the molecules being moved? __ concentration → __ concentration
c. does this require energy? ____
- movement of large particles out of the cell:
image of cells with particles moving out
a. identify the specific type of transport being illustrated.
b. is this active or passive transport? ____
c. what type of substances would be moved in this way? ____
Question 15:
a.
Step1: Analyze glucose concentration
The cell has 3 glucose molecules, and the blood has more (let's count: around 8). So blood has higher concentration.
Step2: Determine the region
Higher concentration of glucose is in the blood (since cell has fewer glucose molecules than blood).
Step1: Recall transport types
Glucose uses helper proteins (carrier proteins) in cell membrane, moving from high (blood) to low (cell) or vice versa? Wait, after digestion, glucose moves into cells. Wait, the cell has 3, blood has more? Wait no, maybe I miscounted. Wait the cell has 3 glucose (triangles), blood has more (like 8). Wait, no—maybe after digestion, glucose is absorbed into blood, then into cells. Wait, the diagram: cell has 3, blood has more. So glucose moves from blood (high) to cell (low)? But with helper proteins. So it's facilitated diffusion? Wait, no—if cell needs glucose, maybe cell has lower concentration. Wait, maybe the cell has lower concentration (3) than blood (more), so glucose moves into cell via facilitated diffusion (uses helper proteins, passive transport). So the specific type is facilitated diffusion.
Step1: Recall active/passive transport
Facilitated diffusion is passive (moves down concentration gradient, no energy needed).
