transport

Question 1

SGLT-1

Answer 1

Sodium- Glucose Co transport/ symport

Site: Luminal, or Apical membrane of the intestinal epithelial cell [ Enterocyte]
Galactose also ( isomer of glucose - OH group ) 
transport of glucose depends on the transport of Na down its concentration gradient ( which is established by primary active transport via Na/K Atpase pump-- ~ which is located on the basolateral membrane of the intestinal epithelial cell ~

Location: small intestine & kidney

Question 2

Glucose Transport route from the Small intestine lumen to the blood

Answer 2

Glucose exhibits 2ry active transport into the intestinal epithelial cell

followed by facilitated Diffusion into the blood

2ry active transport- apical membrane

Facilitated diffusion - basolateral membrane = GLUT 2

Question 3

GLUT 5

Five -Fructose

FF

Answer 3

Facilitated diffusion - basolateral membrane

Fructose

Glucose Transport route from the Small intestine lumen to the blood

Question 4

GLUT 4

Answer 4

Glucose transporter into skeletal muscle

and adipose cells

heart

Question 5

Fructose transport

Answer 5

Facilitated Diffusion all the way through - still a type of carrier meditated transport

Question 6

GLUT 2

Answer 6

Monosaccharides leave the enterocyte through the basolateral membrane by Facilitated Diffusion

glucose transporter in Liver

Beta pancreatic cells

Question 7

Hyperacusis

Answer 7

Hyperacusis is a highly debilitating and rare hearing disorder characterized by an increased sensitivity to certain frequencies and volume ranges of sound (a collapsed tolerance to usual environmental sound). A person with severe hyperacusis has difficulty tolerating everyday sounds, which become painful or loud.
