Understand the Problem
The question is asking about the types of cells that can take up glucose without the need for insulin. We're interested in identifying the specific cells in the given options that have this characteristic.
Answer
Brain cells, liver cells, and red blood cells do not require insulin for glucose uptake.
Cells in the brain, liver, and red blood cells are not dependent on insulin for glucose uptake.
Answer for screen readers
Cells in the brain, liver, and red blood cells are not dependent on insulin for glucose uptake.
More Information
The presence of insulin-independent glucose transporters like GLUT1 and GLUT3 enables these cells to uptake glucose without relying on insulin.
