- The toxic effect of Na+ ions can be avoided in some plant species by storing them in membrane-bound vacuoles within the cytosol. Calculate the maximum vacuolar-to-cytosolic [Na+] ratio that could be achieved by a Na+/H+ antiport mechanism in the vacuolar membrane if the cytosolic pH is 7.4 and the vacuolar pH is 5.6.arrow_forwardA flat (not spherical) tissue engineered skin (thickness 3.9 mm) is attached to the bottom of a dish and cultured with cell media atop it (which has an oxygen concentration of 0.15 mol/m3). The diffusivity of oxygen in the skin is 3.2 E-9 m?/s, and according to experiments that you've performed, you want to make sure that the concentration of oxygen in the device doesn't fall below 0.06 mol/m3.

The molar mass of chlorophyll is 892 g/mol. time = Number einstein/cm². min Given that the average lifetime of an excited chlorophyll molecule in vivo is 1 ns, calculate the fraction of the chlorophyll molecules that are excited at any one time.

- The simple form of |Hoff equation is: II = [B]RT In this equation the [B] is the molar concentration of solute. So: n m [B] = v MV = cg /MA Where c, the mass concentration of the solute is in the total volume of solution and M, is the molar mass of the solute. This equation can be replaced in the previous one to get: RT II = MA In this equation molar mass of given solute can be detemined from the slope of the II vs Cz plot. This equation applies only to solutions that are sufficiently dilute to behave as ideal-dilute solutions. In the case of non-ideal solutions, however, the extended formula is: II = [B]RT{1+ k. [B] + n. [B]² + ...} Biological macromolecules dissolve to produce solutions that are far from ideal, but we can still calculate the osmotic pressure by assuming that the van't Hoff equation is only the first term of a lengthier expression: II [B]RT(1+ b.
