Textbook Question
Chapter 7, Problem 7TYK
Use the following U-tube setup to answer questions 6 through 8.
The solutions in the two arms of this U-tube are separated by a membrane that is permeable to water and glucose but not to sucrose. Side A is filled with a solution of 2.0 M sucrose and 1.0 M glucose. Side B is filled with 1.0 M sucrose and 2.0 M glucose.
During the period before equilibrium is reached, which molecule(s) will show net movement through the membrane?
- a. water
- b. glucose
- c. water and sucrose
- d. water and glucose

When a semipermeable sac filled with a solution containing 10% glucose is immersed in water, the fluid volume in the sac increases. What would happen if the sac solution was replaced with a 20% glucose solution?
Which statement is NOT correct concerning the cell membrane?
1. The fatty acid hydrophobic "tails" are contained within what becomes a double-
layered molecule.
2. This molecule provides an impermeable barrier for the cell from the watery outer
environment.
3. The overall structure of the cell membrane results from the amphiphilic phospholipid
molecules.
4. Because of the hydrophilic property of the phosphate containing "head", this "head*
orients itself toward the "watery." cytoplasm and the extracellular fluid.
You have a beaker filled with a solution containing 2M glucose, 4M urea and 1M salt.Suspended in the solution is a cell that containing a solution of 1M glucose, 8M urea and 3Msalt. The membrane of the cell is permeable to glucose and salt but not urea. Answer each of thefollowing questions:a. Where will water move?b. Where will urea move?c. Where will glucose move?d. Where will salt move?e. What will happen to the volume of fluid inside the cell?f. What will happen to the osmolarity of the fluid inside the cell?

- DO NOT COPY THE ANSWER FROM THE SAME QUESTION. Sassa, a biology professor, wanted to demonstrate to her students the applicability of a dialyzing membrane (DM) as a model for the cell membrane by enclosing an aqueous solution in a DM bag and immersing in a beaker containing a different solution. Substances available which are permeable to the DM include 0.02 M NaCl, 0.03 M glucose, and 0.01 M glucose. The only substance available which is completely impermeable to the DM is the 0.01 M lactose. Using the substances given and materials such as a beaker, stirring rod, and string, draw ONLY ONE set-up that can be demonstrated by Ms. Sassa that will satisfy ALL of the following conditions:a. No solute will exhibit a net diffusion out of the cell.b. Glucose will exhibit a net diffusion into the cell.c. NaCl will exhibit a zero net d. No net movement of lactose from the inside to outside of the cell. Make sure to label properly the substance inside the beaker and inside the DM bag.arrow_forwardUsing Osmosis, Balance, Compartment, Cell, Water, Permeability, and Membrane in your explanation.
