Description: When glucose is absent from the extracellular environment, the cell is not well prepared to take up and metabolize this sugar. However, when glucose is present, some of that glucose binds to receptors in the membrane, which changes the amounts and properties of intracellular and membrane proteins so that the cell can readily use glucose.
