Although the cotransport of sodium and glucose is a passive process,it would not be possible without the active transport of sodium out of the cell.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The cotransport of sodium and glucose is driven by the sodium concentration gradient established by the active transport of sodium out of the cell. This means that although the cotransport of sodium and glucose is a passive process, it relies on the active transport of sodium to maintain the necessary concentration gradient for the process to occur. Therefore, the statement is true.
