Intestinal epithelial cells are used as an example of a cell with distinctly localized transmembrane proteins. What strategy/structure prevents Na /Glucose symporters from laterally diffusing from the apical side to the lateral or basal sides of the cell

Explanation:

Glucose/Na symporters cannot diffuse across from the apical side to the lateral or basal sides because of the lipid bilayer (the hydrophobic tail/part will prevent it from crossing). However, a facilitated diffusion approach is "endorsed" here,  a specialized carrier protein called glucose or sodium transporter is used to transfer/diffuse the glucose or sodium to the basal side of the cell.

NOTE: These lipid bilayers are present in the cell membrane and are actually responsible for the selective nature of what goes in or out of the cell. The bilayer consists of the hydrophilic head and the hydrophobic tail.

question: which statement best describes the different properties of metals?

answer: they are shiny and bend without breaking.

since metals have certain characteristics properties, they include the following: they are ductile, malleable, shiny, hard, lustrous, flexible and they are good conductor of heat and electricity. so therefore, metals are not dull and they are not non-flexible as listed. instead, they are shiny and flexible.

hope this , have a good day. c;
