Question

question 5 (1 point) when jennifer strange died due to water intoxication it was due to. a exocytosis b diffusion c osmosis d pinocytosis question 6 (1 point) if a cell contains 50% water and the environment contains 50% water, then water will... a move out of the cell b no movement of water would occur c move in and out of the cell equally d move into the cell

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

For Question 5:

  • Exocytosis is the process of vesicles fusing with the plasma membrane and releasing their contents outside the cell.
  • Diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
  • Osmosis is the movement of water across a semi - permeable membrane from an area of low solute concentration (high water concentration) to an area of high solute concentration (low water concentration). Water intoxication (hyponatremia) is related to the movement of water into cells due to osmosis.
  • Pinocytosis is a form of endocytosis where the cell takes in extracellular fluid.

For Question 6:

  • When the water concentration inside and outside the cell is the same (isotonic solution), the rate of water moving into the cell is equal to the rate of water moving out of the cell.

Answer:

Question 5: C. Osmosis
Question 6: C. move in and out of the cell equally
