Answer:
It is transported across the placenta by facilitated diffusion via hexose transporters that are not dependent on insulin (GLUT3 and GLUT1). Although the fetus receives large amounts of intact glucose, a large amount is oxidized within the placenta to lactate, which is used for fetal energy production.

Answer:
- In the uterus (womb), babies get glucose from their mother through the placenta and umbilical cord.
- Some glucose is used immediately as energy and some is stored in preparation for birth.
- Newborn babies are able to make glucose from these stores
