Compartments A and B are separated by a membrane that is permeable to K+ but not to Na+ or Cl-. At time zero, a solution of KCl
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

The electrical and diffusion potentials for K+ will be equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.

Explanation:

The cell potential may be defined as the potential difference between the inside of the cell and outside the cell. This difference is important for the transmission of nerve impulse.

The equilibrium condition may be defined as the condition at which  the exit and the entrance of the ions will be equal. As the information in the question, Only potassium ions will move inward and outward of the cell. The potassium ions will move in opposite direction since the equilibrium has been reached.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

postnew [5]

Answer:

The process shown in the model requires energy from the cell.

Explanation:

Active transport refers to the movement of materials across the cell membrane against concentration gradient.

The cell membrane remains intact. However, energy is required from within the cell to move materials into the cell against concentration gradient, hence the answer.
