QUESTION:
During cell respiration, the reactants of glucose and oxygen are transformed into the products of carbon dioxide, water, and ATP.

Which of the following cell transport processes would be most negatively impacted if a cell no longer had access to oxygen?

ANSWER: CORRECT (SELECTED)
The transport of glucose against its concentration gradient in a small intestinal cell.

EXPLANATION:
This is an example of active transport because it's going against the concentration gradient. Without access to oxygen, ATP can't form efficiently and therefore, active transport can't occur.

The transport of glucose against its concentration gradient in intestinal cells is a type of active transport.

What is active transport?

Active transport is a type of cellular transport by which cells can pass substances across the cell membrane against a concentration gradient.

Active transport always occurs due to the passage of molecules (i.e., a solute in solution) and/or ions from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher  concentration, which requires an input of energy.

The active transport requires energy need to be coupled to the movement of substances against its concentration gradient, which is generally provided by ATP (the energy coin of the cell).

In conclusion, the transport of glucose against its concentration gradient in intestinal cells is a type of active transport.
