If there are more carrier proteins, more glucose can enter the cell. This is because the glucose enters the cell through facilitated diffusion.

How can a cell speed up its intake of glucose from the environment?

A cell speed up its intake of glucose from the environment by having more protein carriers. This will facilitate diffusion of the glucose into the cell.


What form of transport is used by the cell membrane to speed up the intake of glucose?

active uptake, which requires energy and protein carriers in membranes


During the chemical reaction starch is broken down into glucose What will most likely happen if the biochemist adds an enzyme to the reactants?

the reaction will speed up


Why do populations evolve and become adapted to the environment?

The short, simple, answer, is survival. The environment is one of the things that drive evolution. When a species is suited to the environment in which it lives it remains relatively stable in it's particular form and exhibits little change.If the environment becomes unstable or is radically changed in some way, such as ever more cooling temperatures, or a depletion in some natural resource, this drives a species to adapt to the new environment through change/evolution. Depending on the speed with which an environment can change, or the severity of the change in the environment, the pace of the evolution can be relatively slow or relatively fast, but in geologic terms, either fast or slow evolutionarily speaking, the change is still slow in human terms. Evolution always takes usually several millennia, and on rare occasions, based on the scope of the environmental changes, it can happen in as little as several centuries, but this is the exception and not the rule.


How could sugar speed up the decomposition process?

Sugar will speed up the decomposition process because sugar does not melt, it will decompose. Decomposing sugar produces oxygen and water that certain bacteria and microbes love and then they are attracted to the area causing more decomposition in that area.

What problem does low energy intake cause for your brain?

Low energy intake causes the brain to work at a slower speed.


Can a diesel air intake affect my truck's speed?

A diesel air intake does have the potential to increase the speed of your truck, and to make it go faster. The nature of the intake will allow for a greater amount of air to reach the engine. The increased air supply will, in turn, create superior combustion which should allow for greater overall speed.

What impact does the airplane have on the environment?

That would depend on the kind of aircraft and the speed it was traveling, at the time of "impact" on the environment.


How do you know if your intake manifold gasket is bad?

You will feel a miss at idle and the idle speed may be erratic. Try retorquing the intake manifold bolts, working from the center out in the recommended tightening sequence. If that fails, the intake manifold will have to be removed and the intake gaskets replaced.
