Question

differentiate between transcellular and paracellular reabsorption​

Answer 1

Answer:

Transcellular transport often involves energy expenditure whereas paracellular transport is unmediated and passive down a concentration gradient. ... The paracellular pathway allows the permeation of hydrophilic molecules that are not able to permeate through the lipid membrane by the transcellular pathway of absorption.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Paracellular transport refer to the transfer of substances across an epithelium by passing through the intercellular space between the cells.

It is in contrast to transcellular transport,where the substance travel through the cell,passing through both the apical membrane and basolateral membrane
