Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Cells are regarded as the simplest unit (structural and functional) of life. Cellular membrane, nucleus, and cytoplasm are the three major components of a cell. Cellular membrane, which surrounds the entire cell, is composed of phospholipids and proteins. The nucleus is bound by a nuclear membrane, and it possesses the genetic material of the cell. Cytoplasm consists of organelles, cytoskeleton (filaments and tubules), and inclusion bodies.

When two chambers are separated by a membrane permeable to water but not solute, if water is free to move in either direction without limitation or pressure, then water will
move until the concentration of solute on both sides of the chamber is equal
move until there is no water on the dilute side
move until there is no water on the concentrated side
move until the concentration of water on both sides of the chamber is equal

- Palytoxin is a deadly compound found in certain marine animals. When scientists first isolated palytoxin from sea corals in the 1970s, they did not know how it affected people exposed to it. In time, they began to suspect that the toxin was interfering with the sodium-potassium pump. Researchers have measured the effect of palytoxin on ion transport through the sodium-potassium pump using the patch-clamp technique. This involves using a fine-tipped microelectrode to measure the electric current across pumps in the cell membrane. In this activity, you will examine some of the researchers' results and conclusions. Procedure 1. Read the following observations that researchers made after adding palytoxin to a membrane, and then answer the questions. • Observation 1: The current across a single pump jumped from 0 picoamperes to 1 picoamperes. • Observation 2: When ATP was added to the cytoplasm-facing side of the membrane, the current across a group of pumps increased by a factor of 8…arrow_forwardWhich other solutes you could potentially find in or on your cuvette that would bias the measurement of solute concentration?arrow_forwardThe beaker is divided into two compartments (C and D) that has equal volumes of solution separated by an artificial membrane that has a pore size of 23 Å (Angstrom).

- A student designed an experiment to test whether different concentration gradients affect the rate of diffusion through dialysis tubing. Four different solutions (0% NaCl, 1% NaCl, 5% NaCl, and 10% NaCl) were tested under identical conditions. Twenty mL of each solution was placed into separate dialysis tubing that is permeable to Na+, Cl-, and water. Each bag was placed in a separate beaker and covered with distilled water. The concentration of NaCl in the water outside of each bag was measured at 40-second intervals. The graph below shows the results from the 5% bag: Concentration of NaCl Outside of Dialysis Bags Concentration of NaCl (mg/L) 400 320 240 160 80 0 40 80 Time(seconds) 120 5% Solution 160 a.
