A cell containing only pure water is placed into a solution containing 1M sucrose. The cell's membrane is impermeable to water,

sucrose, sodium ions and chloride ions. How could you make the cell isosmotic to the outside solution? Choose all of the correct answers. a. Add NaCl to the inside of the cell until it contains 1M NaCl. b. Add NaCl to the inside of the cell until it contains 0.5M NaCl. c. Increase the number of sodium channels on the cell membrane. d. Increase the active transport of water out of the cell. e. Add sucrose to the cell until it contains 1M sucrose.

Answer: b and e

Explanation:

Two solutions are isotonic to each other if the have the same osmotic pressure.

Since the cell is impermeable to sucrose, sodium and chloride ion outside the cell, For the solution inside the cell to be isoosmotic to the solution outside the cell, same 1M of sucrose should be added to the solution inside the cell to balance osmotic pressure.

If osmolarity is the concentration of a solution expressed as the total number of moles per litre, also the addition of an ionic 0.5M Na+Cl- to the solution inside the cell will also balance the osmotic pressure.

0.5M if NaCl will dissociate and create an equivalent 1M osmotic pressure inside the cell.

Which statement about the pectoral girdle is false
Tju [1.3M]

The shoulder girdle is a complex of five joints that can be divided into two groups. Three of these joints are true anatomical joints while two are physiological ("false") joints.[explain 1] Within each group, the joints are mechanically linked so that both groups simultaneously contribute to the different movements of the shoulder to variable degrees. [1]

DENIUS [597]

This question is incomplete because the options are missing; here is the complete question:

When Amanda added table salt to the first test tube and shook it, she noted that the liquid had dissolved the

A. Solute

B. Acid

C. Solvent

D. Base

The correct answer to this question is Solute

Explanation:

Amanda's experiment involves adding a solid (salt) into a liquid and then mixing both to form a mixture categorized as a solution because one substance has disintegrated in another. Moreover, in this mixture, the liquid is considered as the solvent because this dissolves or disintegrates the salt and the salt is considered as the solute (substance dissolved). In this context, the liquid dissolved the salt or solute in Amanda's solution or mixture.

What are lysosomes? What types of molecules would be found inside lysosomes?
Semenov [28]
<span>The lysosomes are membrane-enclosed organelle, usually spherical. They contain a number of hydrolytic enzymes that are able to break down dfferent kind of molecules. However, to maintain the optimal conditions for enzymes to perform their function, pH in the lysosomes must bi acidic and thus maintained between 4.5 and 5.0. Apart from hydrolytic enzymes, the lysosomes contain substances involved in cell signaling and energy metabolism. </span>
