Experiment Results Predict Question: Predict Question 1: What effect do you think increasing the number of protein carriers will have on the glucose transport rate? Your answer : b. The glucose transport rate will increase.
Predict Question 2: What effect do you think adding Na+ Cl- will have on the glucose transport rate? Your answer : c. There will be no change in the glucose transport rate.
Stop & Think Questions: What happened to the glucose transport rate when the glucose concentration was increased from 2 mM to 8 mM? You correctly answered: a. The glucose transport rate increased.
Describe the conditions that resulted in the fastest rate of glucose transport. You correctly answered: d. 700 glucose carrier proteins and 8 mM glucose
Why do you think equilibrium wasn't reached? You correctly answered: b. The membrane proteins were saturated.
