Glucose is transpoed in the presence Na+ ions in intestine. This is a type of

A
Secondary Active transpo
B
Primary active transpo
C
Facilitated diffusion
D
Simple diffusion
High-Yield Explanation
The active transpo of Na+ into the ECF by Na+-K+ pump is coupled to the transpo of other substances across the cell membrane against their concentration gradient. The energy for the transpo is not directly derived from ATP hydrolysis. Na+ Cotranspo of glucose is an example(Ref: Diseases. Textbook of medical physiology-Geetha)
