| Front | How is glucose absorbed into bloodstream from lumen of ileum |
|---|---|
| Back | 1. Sodium ions actively transported from epithelial cell to blood, this creates a concentration gradient. This process occurs with the help of a sodium-potassium pump 2. Sodium and glucose can move into the epithelial via lumen through cotransport. Glucose uses the concentration gradient of sodium to move into the epithelial. 3. Glucose diffuses into the blood down a concentration gradient through facilitated diffusion |
