B:ATP to start the process
C:ADP to break down the glucose molecules

Answer 1

well its not c

Answer 2

@thomaster do u got this:)

Answer 3

Transporting molecules through a membrane against their concentration gradient is called active transport. It needs a transporter (protein) and energy (ATP).
ATP doesn't bind to the glucose molecules, the transporter does.
Also the glucose isn't broken down
So the only correct answer is B :)
