Question

In the muscle is accomplished by transporters and hexokinase iso-forms with very high Kt/Km. across the liver and pancreatic beta-cell allows for equilibrium to be established between the blood and the cytosol of these cells. across adipocytes and skeletal muscle is increased in a glucagon dependent fashion. Is accomplished via a passive diffusion process across the liver and skeletal muscle. b. and d. has a high Kt and equilibrates extracellular glucose levels with the intracellular glucose levels in the liver cell catalyzes the trapping reaction in muscle and adipose tissue is stored in vesicles that are moved to the membrane in response to insulin signaling is found in the skeletal muscle, is insulin sensitive

Explanation / Answer

Answer is a) glucose transport in the muscle is accomplished by transporters and hexokinase isoforms with very high Kt/Km

Following are incorrect

B: high-Km facilitate diffusion glucose transporter

C: insulin dependent fashion

D: Active transport

GLUT 2

Answer is A: has a high Kt and equilibrates extracellular glucose levels with the intracellular glucose levels in the liver cell.

Following are incorrect

B: Does not perform trapping reaction in adipose tissue.

D: pancreatic Beta Cells and hepatocytes (found in liver and pancreas)  

E: does not rely on insulin for facilitated diffusion.
