ACTIVITY 4

35.What types of transport are utilized during glucose reabsorption and where do they occur?

36.Why does the concentration of glucose in the urinary bladder become zero in these experiments?

37.A person with type 1 diabetes cannot make insulin in the pancreas; a person with type 2 diabetes does not respond normally to the insulin that is made in the pancreas.  In either case, why (or when) would you expect to find glucose in the person’s urine?

35.What types of transport are utilized during glucose reabsorption and where do they occur? Glucose is first reabsorbed by secondary active transport at the apical membrane of PCT cells and then via facilitated diffusion along the basolateral membrane.

36.Why does the concentration of glucose in the urinary bladder become zero in these experiments? Glucose in the urine become zero when glucose carriers were added which means adding enough glucose carriers will facilitate re-uptake of the glucose leaving nothing in the unabsorbed water formed as urine.   

37.A person with type 1 diabetes cannot make insulin in the pancreas; a person with type 2 diabetes does not respond normally to the insulin that is made in the pancreas.  In either case, why (or when) would you expect to find glucose in the person’s urine? Urine of the diabetic will have high glucose concentration. Due to lack of the glucose carriers relatively less than the amount of glucose to be transported, high amount of glucose could not be carried across leaving high concentration discarded with the urine formed.
