Answer:
The active transport of glucose out of the cell and into the bloodstream allows for a concentration gradient to be maintained, which promotes the movement of glucose from the small intestine into the cells. As glucose is actively transported out of the cells, it creates a low concentration of glucose inside the cells, which drives the movement of glucose into the cells from the small intestine via facilitated diffusion. This process ensures that glucose is effectively absorbed from the small intestine and delivered to the cells that need it for energy production. Without the active transport of glucose out of the cells, the concentration gradient would not be maintained and glucose absorption from the small intestine would be less efficient.
