Katie Johnson, a 15 year old female, is brought to the Emergency Room by her mother because of abdominal cramping and vomiting.

Upon triage, you observe that Katie is very weak and a little confused with what is going on. She asks you if she can have a cup of water because she is really thirsty. Her mother tells you that she was fine this time yesterday, but feels that her daughter has taken a turn for the worse. A urinalysis is completed, and comes back showing a high level of ketones.

qwelly [4]

Hello. You forgot to put the image so that this question can be answered, but I will describe what the image shows.

The image shows two types of "cups" that have a type of connection between the two. In cup A there is 1 mole of glucose and 1 mole of fructose. In cup B there is 0.1 mol of glucose and 1.5 mol of fructose.

Answer:

A. Solution A to Solution B

Explanation:

Balance is achieved when the "cup" with the lowest concentration of glucose receives glucose from the "cup" with the highest concentration, to the point that the two glasses establish equal concentrations of glucose between them.

We know that cup B has a lower concentration of glucose, which indicates that the movement of this solute was from cup A towards cup B. With this we can conclude that the letter A is the correct answer.
