Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The GLUTs transport glucose across the plasma membrane by means of a facilitated diffusion mechanism.
Detailed explanation-2: -Insulin translocates GLUT4 from cytosol to plasma membrane to transport glucose into cells, and GLUT8 from cytosol to rough endoplasmic reticulum to recover redundant glucose to cytosol after protein glycosylation.
Detailed explanation-3: -It goes into your intestines where it’s absorbed. From there, it passes into your bloodstream. Once in the blood, insulin helps glucose get to your cells.
Detailed explanation-4: -Glucose transporter (GLUT) is a facilitative transport protein involved in glucose translocation across the cell membrane.
