_ is 10 to 20 times higher inside the cell, and ___ is 10 to 20 times higher outside the cell.

Potassium is 10 to 20 times higher inside the cell, and sodium is 10 to 20 times higher outside the cell. The potential difference across the cell is important in several processes such as transmission of nerve impulses and maintain the ion balance.

The sodium concentration higher out side and potassium higher inside the cell then it moves two potassium into the cell where potassium levels are high and pump three sodium ions out of the cell and into the extracellular fluid.

This is due to action of membrane active transport system which pumps sodium out of the cell and potassium into it. Both helps in body maintain flid and blood volume so it can function normally.

The answer would be:

Passive transport

Active transport

Why?

There are two ways molecules can move across membranes within the cell. What makes the two different is the use of energy.

PASSIVE transport is the movement of molecules DOWN the concentration gradient. The molecules move from areas of higher concentration to lower concentration. This does nor require energy. Comparing it to the scenario, the child starts from a higher area and ends at a lower area. Going down a slide does not take energy. The child simply goes down it.

When you talk about the child going UP a slide, think ACTIVE transport. Unlike passive transport, active transport requires energy, because the molecules move AGAINST the concentration gradient. The movement of molecules in this type of transport is the opposite, it goes from lower areas of concentration to higher areas of concentration.

Hopefully, this has been educational for you and was able to help you understand the difference between the two.

A constant factor could be the dose of the drugs and the species of the rats used.

<h3>What is a constant factor?</h3>

In an experiment, a constant factor is one that is not allowed to change al through the experiment. This one must be held as the same and not allowed to vary. A constant factor could be the dose of the drugs and the species of the rats used.

The factor that would be different for the experimental group and the control group the administration of the new drug.
