Answer:

The impact on the loss in the activity of the OmpF proteins could alter the permeability of certain drugs thus avoiding the antibacterial effect. And a change or alteration in the ToIC protein could alter the transport capacity of certain harmful substances, thereby achieving hostile environmental conditions.

Explanation:

A modification in the OmpF porins would primarily affect the antibiotic drug line, including carbapenems and cephalosporins. A loss in the activity of the OmpF porins would favor resistance to antibiotics and to the change in the transport of molecules allowing the activation of expulsion pumps, resulting in the aforementioned resistance.

On the other hand, when the ToIC proteins are modified, a system that causes the antimicrobial drugs to be expelled would be activated, this system being known as exit pumps, however, this system does not transport some more hydrophobic beta-lactam beta or some aminoglycosides.

Answer:

This question have two parts.

Question 1. Is a 0.185 M aqueous solution of sodium sulfate, Na2SO4, hypertonic, hypotonic or isotonic to red blood cells?

Answer:

Hypotonic because sodium sulfate is a detergent which can cross the lipid bi-layer.

Question 2. If normal red blood cells were suspended in this Na2SO4 solution, what would be the expected outcome?

Answer:

Hemolysis (Bursting of Red blood cells) will occur due to excessive movement of water inside the cell resulting from sodium sulfate solution.
