The 10 organelles of a plant cell are the nucleus, mitochondria, chloroplasts, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, vacuole, ribosomes, cell wall, plasma membrane, and cytoskeleton. Each organelle plays a specific role in the cell's functions and maintenance.
Mitochondria are not directly involved in transporting glucose across the cell membrane. Glucose transport into the cell is primarily facilitated by glucose transport proteins located on the cell membrane. These transport proteins utilize concentration gradients to move glucose into or out of the cell as needed.
Yes, any form of active transport uses energy.
Two major means of active membrane transport are primary active transport, which directly uses energy in the form of ATP to transport molecules against their concentration gradient, and secondary active transport, which uses the energy stored in the electrochemical gradient of one molecule to drive the transport of another molecule against its gradient.
