Part 3. The glucose-Na* transporter Glucose SIDE A lucose Glucose Glucose Glucose SIDE B Glucose Figure 3. The system starts with thirteen Nat ions and three glucose molecules on Side A. Side B starts with three glucose molecules. A glucose-Nat transporter is in the membrane. 13. At the end point, how many glucose molecules will be on side B? 14. At the end point, how many Nations will be on side B? 15. What source of energy was used to move glucose from one side to the other? 16. Is the movement of these glucose molecules considered to be active or passive transport? Why? 17. If you added many more glucose molecules to side A, would the sodium-glucose transporter continue to transport glucose against its concentration gradient indefinitely? Why or why not?
