Question
Chapter 23.7, Problem 23.19P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason for the passive diffusion of glucose back out of the cell has to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Passive diffusion:
The transport of ions in the cell membrane which doesn’t need any energy, because the substances move from high concentration to low concentration, in this process only ions which are non-polar and small in size are allowed.
Glycolysis process:
The process in which the breakdown of glucose into pyruvic acid, this whole process generates two ATP’s.
The process serves as the foundation for both aerobic and anaerobic

Why does the lack of glucose 6- phosphatase activity in the brain and muscle make good physiological sense?
Glycolysis can occur under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Why is glycolysis called an anaerobic pathway?
2-Deoxyglucose or 2-DG is a glucose analog that binds to hexokinase (the first rate-
limiting enzyme of glycolysis) in cells. 2-DG cannot undergo further glycolysis.
Which of the following would you predict in cells treated with 2-DG?
Select all that apply.
Cellular depletion of ATP under anaerobic conditions
Decreased viability of tumor cells
Increased viability of tumor cells
Increased activation of AMPK, a key regulator of cellular metabolism
