Glucose is normally transported into cells by an active transport protein since the concentration of glucose inside cells is normally higher than that in the blood.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Glucose is transported into cells by a facilitated diffusion process, not active transport. The concentration of glucose inside the cells is lower than that in the blood, which creates a concentration gradient that allows for facilitated diffusion. Active transport requires energy to move substances against their concentration gradient.
