Is channel-mediated diffusion a form of active transport?
Yes, when channels are specific for the structures of individual molecules it is active transport. Active transport cannot occur if the energy they are moving is not of the same type, like glucose cannot move calcium.
Which renal structure transport glucose?
In the renal structure the proximal tubules plays a role for transport of glucose.
Which of the two human organs uses more energy than the other The heart or the kidney?
The kidney, proportionally uses more energy than the heart because of the amount of energy it uses in active transport reabsorbing substances (amino acids, glucose).
What malfunctioning organ causes glucose in urine?
Kidney
How much glucose is filtered in the kidney every day?
How much glucose is filtered and reabsorbed daily
What type of transport is used during glucose reabsorbtion?
Solutes are selectively moved from the glomular filtrate to the plasma by active transport in the kidney. This includes glucose. Your kidneys receive 20–25 percent of your total cardiac output. Normally about 1200 ml of blood flows through the kidneys each minute.
Is channel-mediated diffusion a form of active transport?
Yes, when channels are specific for the structures of individual molecules it is active transport. Active transport cannot occur if the energy they are moving is not of the same type, like glucose cannot move calcium.
Where are the pyramid located in the kidney?
medulla
What Carrier Proteins Transport Glucose Into A Muscle Cell?
carrier proteins transport glucose into a muscle cell
Which renal structure transport glucose?
In the renal structure the proximal tubules plays a role for transport of glucose.
How do mammals transport glucose?
Glucose is transported through the blood
What happens to glucose as it passes through the kidney?
Nothing happens to the glucose. It should have been stored in the kidney, but it didn't, therefore, you have an excess amount glucose in your blood. Hence, the insulin shots.
Which of the two human organs uses more energy than the other The heart or the kidney?
The kidney, proportionally uses more energy than the heart because of the amount of energy it uses in active transport reabsorbing substances (amino acids, glucose).
What is a molecule used by glucose as a piggyback into and out of the cell in the process of active transport?
The glucose transporter is a membrane bound protein that binds to glucose and mediates it's transport into or out of the cell.
Why sodium level decrease in diebetic patient?
i think this is because of sodium and glucose transporter the transmembrane protein allow sodium ions and glucose to enter the cell together in the same direction and its used to actively transport glucose out of the intestine and out of the kidney tubules back to blood so in case of diabetes sodium cant be reabsorbed in kidney tubules and go to urine and thus sodium level decrease in diabetic patient
Did NaCl affect glucose transport?
no it does not
How does the gloucose get into the cells?
There are glucose transport proteins. Since there are fewer glucose particles in the cell (when compared to the fluid outside of cells), it is passive transport, which occurs naturally. The transport protein is necessary for the glucose to pass through the cell membrane.
