Passive transport is the kind of movement Êwhen glucose enters a liver cell through a protein channel. It does not require an input of chemical energy being driven by the growth of entropy in the system.Ê

∙ 9y agoOne way for a cell, like a liver cell, to take up more glucose is to activate the glucose transported. It is an active transport molecule that is stimulated by the binding of insulin.

Wiki User
∙ 14y agoit is diffusion which is passive transport
Wiki User
∙ 13y agofirst it is absorbed in the small intestine , into the bloodstream..and so through the blood stream it diffuses into cell.....
in plant cell, well i dont remember..:P

Why do glucose need insulin to enter cells?
Most cell membranes are NOT permeable to sugar unless insulin opens a channel.
Cells produce ATP most efficiently in the presence of what molecule?
Oxygen. Cells can produce much more ATP from glucose in the presence of Oxygen (aerobic respiration) than without oxygen (anaerobic respiration) in a process called oxidative phosphorylation that occurs in the mitochondria of cells. In the presence of oxygen one glucose can be broken down to produce 36 ATP Without oxygen, only 4 ATP can be made
What type of molecules insulin?
Insulin is a hormone released by the beta cells in your pancreas, when there is glucose (sugar) in your blood. Insulin goes through the blood stream and basically tells the cells of the body that there is glucose in the blood stream. and the cells respond to it by stopping glucagon breakdown, start making glucagon, taking up glucose into the cells with glucose transporters. A hormone is a molecule that is released in one part of the body, but works in another.
Glycolysis takes place in?
Defining Glycolysis as ' the anaerobic degradation of glucose to yield lactic acid ', the most common location of this activity is in oxygen depleted muscle cells.
What are the functions of CHO?
major fuel source for cells Maintains blood glucose levels.
Which process are glucose and amino acids transported into cells?
osmosis
What happens to glucose that is transported into the intestinal epithelial cells?
It is carried into the bloodstream by active transport not facilitated diffusion
How is glucose transported through the plant?
Glucose is transported to all the parts in the plant,especially the Mesophyll Spongy Layer..which is on top on the stomata and guard cells.It's transported to feed the plant.It is not transported as glucose because its very reactive and can get into chemical reactions where its not needed or wanted.And might be lost.Its converted to starch to be stored or used for energy.Dont want to get into detail.Jazakallahu Khair.
What substance is most commonly transported during facilitated diffusion?
Glucose
How does the glucose in respiration get transported to the muscle cells?
through these bunchy things that come out of the lungs. they are then carried around the body to the muscles.
Which state is glucose found in the transported?
Glucose is found in the solid state and is transported to all the parts of a plant.
Glucose and no other sugar is transported into cells by protein carrier molecules in the cell surface membrane. How do carrier molecules specifically recognize glucose?
the receptors on the protein carrier recognise glucose allowing it to enter the cell :)
How do mammals transport glucose?
Glucose is transported through the blood
Which part of the blood transport carbon dioxide and glucose?
Glucose is carried through the circulation in the blood plasma.
Is glucose transported around the body dissolved in the plasma?
Yes, it is attached to the red blood cells which travels around the body via the plasma.
What surgar can be transported in the blood?
glucose
What happens to the starch in your mouth?
It is broken down into glucose molecules, which are then transported to cells to be used as an energy source or stored as glycogen.
