Summary Introduction
To determine:
The mechanism that can be used to import more glucose in a liver cell.
Introduction:
A biological membrane has selective permeability. Some substances pass freely through phospholipid bilayer, but others require help from proteins.
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The reason that only one mode of transport can import more glucose in the liver cell.
Introduction:
