QUESTION

Number 8. Is the inside of the cell isotonic, hypotonic, or hypertonic? What will eventually happen to the cell

PART II. When cells are in the process of moving ions and other solutes around to changeconcentrations across their membrane, they always have to deal with water moving as well -osmosis! That means if a cell does not want water to move it needs to make sure to balanceoverall solute concentrations. Anytime there is a difference in overall concentration of soluteswater will move.Consider the figure below when answering the following questions. Assume it defines thestarting conditions for an experiment with a cell in a solution.Sucrose = 1.0 MSucrose = 0.2 MNa+ = 2.0 MNat = 0.4 M7. (1 pt) Suppose there is a sodium channel in the cell membrane.What will be the new concentration of Nat outside the cell?What will be the new concentration of Nat inside the cell?(1 pt) Why would the concentrations of sucrose NOT change?8. (1 pt) After the movement of sodium is the inside of the cell (circle one)Isotonichypotonichypertonic9.(2 pts) Draw an arrow indicating the net movement of water after sodium has moved. Ifnothing else changes what will eventually happen to the cell?10. (1 pts) We don't want that to happen to our cell! So what are we going to do to prevent thatfrom happening (be very specific)? (cells are lazy, so they would go for the simplest, mostenergy efficient method.)
