What is the energy required for glucose reabsorption used for
A)to run the Na⁺-K⁺ ATPase pump
B)to run the Na⁺-glucose cotransport carrier
C)to maintain the Tm for glucose
D)to produce aldosterone-induced protein, which increases the permeability of the proximal tubular cells to glucose

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The energy required for glucose reabsorption is primarily used to run the Na⁺-K⁺ ATPase pump, which creates the sodium gradient necessary for the Na⁺-glucose cotransport carrier to function.
