Glucose diffuses slowly through artificial phospholipid bilayers. The cells lining the small intestine, however, rapidly move large quantities of glucose from the glucose-rich food into their glucose-poor cytoplasm. Using this information, which transport mechanism is most probably functioning in the intestinal cells? (1pts) Question 13 - Glucose diffuses slowly through artificial phospholipid bilayers.

Answer: Facilitated diffusion

Explanation:

Then, the rapid movement of glucose along concentration gradient (i.e from a region of high concentration to low concentration) is aided by a transport protein embedded in the intestinal wall. Also, because the transport mechanism is not driven by energy supply, glucose transport was by a mechanism called Facilitated diffusion.

Thus, facilitated diffusion is the answer
