How does sleep affect blood sugar?

In the red blood cell, glucose is transported into the cell against its concentration gradient. The energy for this transport is supplied by the hydrolysis of ATP: ATP H2 O →ADP Pi (Δr G^∘=-31.0  kJ  mol^-1) Assume that the overall transport reaction is 100 % efficient and given by ATP H2 O 2 glucose (out) → 2glucose (in) ADP Pi . a. At 25^∘ C, under conditions where [ATP],[ADP], and [Pi] are held constant at 1 ×10^-2 M by cell metabolism, find the maximum value of ([ glucose(in) ])/([
