b co2 leaving your blood cells and entering your lungs
c water molecules entering through special open pores called aquaporins
d moving glucose from a low concentration to a high concentration
e moving glucose from a high concentration to a low concentration

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Cellular potential energy is used in active transport, which moves substances against their concentration gradient. Options A, B, C, and E are examples of passive transport (diffusion or osmosis) that do not require cellular potential energy. Option D involves moving glucose from low to high concentration, which is active transport and requires cellular potential energy.

Answer:

D. moving glucose from a low concentration to a high concentration
