What are two sugars that can be absorbed by active transport?
glucose and galactose
How are fats absorbed in the small intestine?
The smaller fat chains can do diffusion, but the larger ones have to do endocytosis.
What are passive and active transport?
Passive transport and active transport are transport of materials across membranes. Passive requires no energy, while active does.
What is it called when materials move from lower to higher concentration?
Specifically Diffusion, but it is also active transport
What is the process that requires the use of energy to move materials across a membrane?
I believe it's active transport. active transport is correct.
Are fats absorbed by active transport or passive transport?
active transport
Where are tripeptides absorbed?
By secondary active transport with Hydrogen.
What are two sugars that can be absorbed by active transport?
glucose and galactose
Amino acids absorbed through two processes of?
active transport and diffusion.... (:
Why absorption rate of galactose is more than glucose?
it is absorbed by active transport
In the small intestine the products of digestion are absorbed by both diffusion and... what?
active transport
Proteins are absorbed primarily as?
Proteins are absorbed primarily as amino acids. These acids are water soluble and easily absorbed by the body via active transport.
Is fructose active or inactive?
Fructose is a type of sugar, so it would most likely be active.
How are most nutrients absorbed through the mucosa of the intestinal villa?
Active transport driven directly or indirectly by metabolic energy ;)
What is a good sentence for Active Transport?
Active Transport is carried out in our body cells. Active Transport uses energy to transport materials.
where does active transport takes place which part of the cell?
Active transport takes place in the small intestine, where nutrients are absorbed from the intestine and into the bloodstream. More specifically, it is the structures known as villi that contain the protein receptors necessary for active transport to take place. The process also happens in the nephrons of the kidneys, where glucose and water/ions are selectively reabsorbed back into the bloodstream.
Is testosterone a passive transport or an active transport?
it is an ACTIVE transport.
