- 7. Use your knowledge of osmosis to explain your experimental results. Hint: The tubing is made of a selectively permeable membrane, so you know osmo- sis must have happened, but you should explain the situation in terms of molecules moving into and out of the tube. 8. A salt solution that contains 20% salt contains 80 % water. 9. If you were told that a type of cell contained about 2% salt, what would happen if you put the cells into a solution of 18% saline? It would swell because 18076 of Saline is cn hypotonic solution and cell hes salt concentration and low water but in saline low salt and high water is present so th water will enter the cell by osmosis and swells up the cell.arrow_forward1.Base on your understanding of plant and animal cell osmosis, what condition do you think plant cells prefer? 2. What condition do you think animal cells prefer? Consider the question: How is solute concentration related to the change in the weight of plant cells (like potato cells)? 5. Write a hypothesis from the above question. Write one if statement and make three predictions(then statements) regarding how the cell will change (weight) in (1) hypertonic,(2) hypotonic, and (3) isotonic conditions:arrow_forward27arrow_forward
- 4. A cell with a selectively permeable membrane is in a solution. Urea can diffuse through the membrane (by passive diffusion in either direction) but ions such as Na*, Cl¯ and K* cannot. Which of the following is correct? Urea Urea K Urea K Inside of cell Naci Urea K K Naci Naci K+ Urea K+ Urea Urea Urea Solution Urea Naci Urea K+ K+ Selectively permeable Urea NaCl Urea NaCl K Urea NaCl K non-penetrating Naci non-penetrating Urea penetrating membrane A. The solution is hypoosmotic and hypotonic relative to the cell, and the net movement of water is towards the cell B. The solution is hyperosmotic and hypotonic relative to the cell, and the net movement of water is towards the cell C. The solution is isoosmotic and isotonic relative to the cell, and the net movement of water is null D. The solution is hypoosmotic and hypertonic relative to the cell, and the net movement of water is towards the solution E. The solution is isoosmotic and hypertonic relative to the cell, and the net…arrow_forward3. Osmosis is also part of the colligative properties of a solution. This time, we are going to relate it using the red blood cells and the different types of solutions namely hypertonic, hypotonic and isotonic solution. Answer the following questions: a. What is the movement of solute particles in osmosis? b. What happens to the sizes of the following red blood cells with the different types of solutions? i. Hypertonic solution ii. Hypotonic solution_ i. Isotonic solution 4. Enumerate at least 3 – 5 practical applications of colligative properties in everyday livesarrow_forward19)Which of the following is most likely to induce osmosis if red blood cells are place in a high concentration of it? H2O the amino acid glycine glycerol (CH2OH-CHOH-CH2OH) butane (CH3CH2CH2CH3)arrow_forward

Which of these compounds will cross the cell membrane without the aid of a membrane transport protein, and why? H3 NH NH 2. By what transport process will the above compound be transported? What are the factors which drive movement across the membrane in this process? Does this process require input of energy?arrow_forward6- One of the following is an example about the secondary active transport: a- Glucose/ Na* C- H/k b- Kt/Nat d- None of the abovearrow_forward
