Concept explainers

Osmosis

In simple words, osmosis is the slow, gradual movement of a liquid through a membrane. But there are nuances to this process. For instance, there has to be an imbalance in the distribution of solute in the liquid on either side of the membrane, which has to be semipermeable. The liquid in the region with a lower solute concentration moves to the region with a higher concentration, thereby displacing the solution in the process. The objective is to equalize the concentration of molecules on both sides of the membrane; the displacement of liquid can be viewed as a byproduct of this equalization. Since there is no energy required to carry osmosis, it is considered a passive process.

Calculate the number of cells in the body of an average 68-kg (150-lb) adult. (This will only be accurate to about 1 part in 10 but should give you an idea how scientists estimate this commonly quoted number.) Assume all cells are spheres 20 m in diameter. The volume of a sphere can be determined by the equation v=4/33. (Hint: We know that about two thirds of the water in the body is intracellular and the density of cells is nearly 1 g/mL. The proportion of the mass made up of water is about 60%.)
For this practice problem, would the answer be c)NaCl?
