Question

The direction that glucose is transported across the membrane is determined by:

A. The electrochemical gradient.
B. The membrane potential.
C. The concentration gradient.
D. The molecule's charge

Answer 1

Glucose is transported across the membrane based on the concentration gradient through facilitated diffusion.

Step-by-step explanation:

The direction that glucose is transported across the membrane is determined by the concentration gradient. Glucose molecules use facilitated diffusion to move down a concentration gradient through the carrier protein channels in the cell membrane.
