The Answer is A. The presence of sodium potassium pumps has nothing to do with water moving in and out of cells.
Softa [21]3 years ago

The right answer is A.

Solutes have an influence on the water distribution inside and outside the cell, exerting an osmotic pressure.

The sodium-potassium or Na+ -K+ ATPase pump is a transmembrane protein whose enzymatic activity uses energy derived from the degradation of ATP to ADP and inorganic phosphate to transport K+ and Na+ against their concentration gradient. It plays a role in maintaining the resting potential of nerve, muscle and cardiac cells. The pump is used to exchange sodium ions (Na +) from the intracellular medium with K + potassium ions from the extracellular medium in a precise ratio (3 Na + / 2 K +). This pump is responsible for restoring the initial balance after an action potential.

Although the sodium ore itself has an influence on the water distribution by exerting osmotic pressure, the action of the Na-K pump does not influence it directly, it will just keep the most of sodium ions outside the cell.

Water's ability to dissolve a wide variety of molecules is important, but more important is the hydrophobic effect, which drives
NeX [460]

Answer and explanation;

The hydrophobic effect is the observed tendency of non-polar substances to aggregate in an aqueous solution and exclude water molecules. Hydrophobic interaction is mostly an entropic effect originating from the disruption of highly dynamic hydrogen bonds between molecules of liquid water by the non-polar solute.

Introduction of such a non-hydrogen bonding surface into water causes disruption of the hydrogen bonding network between water molecules.

Water dissolves molecules (proteins and nucleic acids) that display on their solvent-accessible surfaces groups that can h-bond [hydroxyl, carbonyl, ester groups; they're polar uncharged...also charged groups; protonated amines, carboxylates and phosphate ethers.

Molecules with internal h-bonds dissolve in water, some/all internal h-bonds may be in dynamic exchange with h-bonds in water .

Polar nature of water contributes to ability to dissolve non-ionic polar organic molecules, such as phenols, esters, amides; have large dipole moments and interaction with water dipole promotes solubility in water.
