The cell uses energy to transport glucose through the cell membrane?

Glucose moves across the cell membrane through facilitated diffusion. This type of transport uses protein carriers to assist glucose molecules across the cell membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

Can water enter a cell by active transport?
There are two ways that the molecules (i.e: water) move through the membrane: passive transport and active transport. Active transport requires that the cell use energy that it has obtained from food to move the molecules (or larger particles) through the cell membrane. Passive transport does not require such an energy expenditure, and occurs spontaneously.
What is it called when the movement of materials through a cell membrane without using the cells energy?
Passive transport does not use energy to pass through a cell membrane. active transport uses energy to pass through a cell membrane.
What is the movement of material through a membrane?
This movement occurs through several mechanisms.
Some materials can move across the cell membrane against a concentration gradient by?
Large molecules such as glucose that cannot cross the phospholipid bilayer can still move across the membrane through transport proteins by active transport. Active transport uses energy to move molecules the bilayer.
When an input of energy is required to move material through a cell membrane what transport takes place?
Active transport requires energy to move substances across a cell membrane against their gradient.

What part of blood transport glucose?
Blood transports glucose through our nerve system and also through the red blood cells.Glucose is transported to the cells by a uni porter. It passes through the erythrocytes membrane (red cell membrane) and as soon as it enters, it is turned into a chemical and/or a source for energy.
What transport may need to use energy to pass through cell membrane?
active transport

What cells require glucose as an energy to carry out life processes and what mediates the glucose transport across the cell's plasma membrane?
Glucose is virtually the sole energy fuel of brain. Where as, Muscle can derive energy from glucose, fatty acids and ketone bodies; adipose tissue stores and uses triacylglycerols.Glucose transporters in the cell membrane permit the entry of glucose inside the cells.

What molecule uses energy to push molecules through the membrane of a cell?
Transport Protein
Movement through a cell membrane without using energy is?
I've transport.
What is the definition of active transport?
active transport is an energy reqiuring process in which transport proteins bind with particles and move them through a cell membrane
