Explanation:
Hypertonic: cell shrink
Isotonic: cell will stay the same
Hypotonic: cell will swell

Answer:
The cytosolic and mitochondrial pools of CoA are kept separate, and no radioactive CoA from the cytosolic pool enters the mitochondrion.
Explanation:
- Fatty acyl group condensed with CoA in the cytosol are first transferred to carnitine and in this process, CoA is released.
- After this, it is transported into the mitochondrion, where it is again condensed with CoA.
- In this way, the cytosolic and mitochondrial pools of CoA are kept separate, and due to this reason, no radioactive CoA from the cytosolic pool enters the mitochondrion.
- Therefore, according to the given question, the C14 CoA that is added into the liver homogenate along with palmitate shows cytosolic radioactive fraction but not mitochondrial as in the mitochondria a different CoA joins palmitate and not the one containing C14.
