Question
Please answer number 10, 11, and 13 of this handout
If the hexagons in the above figure represent solute particles, what form of transport is being illustrated and does this form require the cell to use energy? Give an example of a molecule that could move in this way. If the hexagons in the above figure represent water molecules, what form of transport is being illustrated and does this form require the cell to use energy? Assuming again that the hexagons are solute, in which direction would water move (into or out of the cell) at the beginning of the experiment and why? Assuming again that the hexagons are solute, in which direction would water move (into or out of the cell) at the end of the experiment and why? What types of transport would use part G in the cell membrane diagram on the front page? If the cell membrane on the front page was the membrane of a cell in the small intestine and your breakfast was there now, what form of transport would be used to move glucose into the cell? Please draw glucose as a circle on the diagram on the front showing how it moves through the membrane.Explanation / Answer
Ans 10:If the hexagons are water molecules they will move from a place of higher water potential to a place of lower water potential. In this case water will move into the cell because inside of cell has less water potential.
