Multiple Types of Epithelia
Structure of the Intestinal Epithelial Cell
Acidification of an Extracellular Medium
Transport of Glucose from the Intestinal Lumen into the Blood
ORAL REHYDRATION THERAPY
1) REQUIRES BOTH NaCl AND GLUCOSE; NEITHER ALONE WORKS
THE Na+/ GLUCOSE SYMPORT PROTEIN MUST TRANSPORT Na+AND GLUCOSE TOGETHER
2) TRANSPORT OF NaCl AND GLUCOSE ACROSS THE INTESTINAL EPITHELIUM CAUSES OSMOTIC FLOW OF WATER FROM THE INTESTINAL LUMEN INTO THE BLOOD, LEADING TO REHYDRATION
