Which of the following correctly depicts the mechanism of the Na+/glucose co-transporter discussed in class? Select one: a)Both the Na and the glucose must bind which allows Na to move against its gradient because glucose is moving down its gradient. b)Glucose is pushed against its gradient because Na will be moving with its electrochemical gradient. c)This transporter binds Na on the outside of the cell, then ATP adds on a Phosphate, which changes the confirmation and open to cells interior...
