A cell that is placed in salty seawater will .a. take sodium and chloride ions in by diffusion;b. move water out of the cell by active transport;c. use facilitated diffusion to break apart the sodium and chloride ions;d. lose water to the outside of the cell via osmosis

What two conditions must be present for osmosis to occur?Integral membrane proteins are anchored in lipid bilayers.

A plant cell placed in distilled water will ______________; an animal cell placed in distilled water will ______________.a. burst … burstb. become flaccid . . . shrivelc. become turgid . . . be normal in shaped. become turgid . . . burst

The sodium concentration in a cell is 10 times less than the concentration in the surrounding fluid. How can the cell move sodium out of the cell? (Explain your answer.)a. passive transportb. receptor-mediated endocytosisc. active transportd. facilitated diffusion

DRAW IT An artificial 'cell' consisting of an aqueous solution enclosed in a selectively permeable membrane is immersed in a beaker containing a different solution, the 'environment,' as shown in the accompanying diagram. The membrane is permeable to water and to the simple sugars glucose and fructose but impermeable to the disaccharide sucrose.a. Draw solid arrows to indicate the net movement of solutes into and/or out of the cell.b. Is the solution outside the cell isotonic, hypotonic, or hypertonic?c. Draw a dashed arrow to show the net osmosis, if any.d. Will the artificial cell become more flaccid, more turgid, or stay the same?e. Eventually, will the two solutions have the same or different solute concentrations?

In an experiment, you create two groups of liposomes in a solution containing 0.1 M NaCl—one made from red blood cell membranes and the other from frog egg cell membranes. When the liposomes are placed in water, those with red blood cell membranes burst more rapidly than those made from egg membranes. What could explain these results? Select True or False for each of the following statements.a. T/F The red blood cell liposomes are more hypertonic relative to water than the frog egg liposomes.b. T/F The red blood cell liposomes are more hypotonic relative to water than the frog egg liposomes.c. T/F The red blood cell liposomes contain more aquaporins than the frog egg liposomes.d. T/F The frog egg liposomes contain ion channels, which are not present in the red blood cell liposomes.

Examine the experimental chamber in Figure 6.8a. Explain what would occur by osmosis if you added a 1-M solution of sodium chloride on the left side and an equal volume of a 1.5 M solution of potassium ions on the right. How might the addition of the CFTR protein to the lipid bilayer impact the direction of water movement?
