Question

Accepted Answer

### 1. What is the % of glucose and sodium outside the cell?
# Brief Explanations:
From the diagram, outside the cell (in the solution) it's given as 10% Glucose and 5% Sodium. To find the total solute percentage outside, we add them: $10\% + 5\% = 15\%$ for solutes, but the question asks for % of glucose and sodium separately, so glucose is 10%, sodium is 5%.
# Answer:
Glucose: 10%, Sodium: 5%

### 2. What is the % of water outside the cell?
# Explanation:
## Step1: Assume total solution is 100% (since percentages are relative to total).
Total outside = 100%.
## Step2: Subtract solute percentage (glucose + sodium) from 100%.
Solute outside = $10\% + 5\% = 15\%$. So water outside = $100\% - 15\% = 85\%$.
# Answer:
85%

### 3. What is the % of water inside the cell?
# Explanation:
## Step1: Inside the cell, glucose is 30% (solute), assume total inside is 100% (cell's internal solution).
## Step2: Subtract solute (glucose) percentage from 100% to get water percentage.
Water inside = $100\% - 30\% = 70\%$.
# Answer:
70%

### 4. Will osmosis occur?
# Brief Explanations:
Osmosis occurs when there's a difference in water concentration (or solute concentration) across a semi - permeable membrane. Here, water outside is 85% and inside is 70%, so there's a concentration gradient. So osmosis will occur.
# Answer:
Yes

### 5. If so, which way will water move (into or out of the cell)?
# Brief Explanations:
Water moves from an area of higher water concentration to lower water concentration. Water outside is 85% (higher) and inside is 70% (lower), so water will move into the cell (since outside has more water relative to inside).
# Answer:
Into the cell

### 6. Will the cell swell or shrink?
# Brief Explanations:
If water moves into the cell, the cell will take in water, leading to an increase in volume, so the cell will swell.
# Answer:
Swell

### 7. The cell is in what type of solution (hypertonic, hypotonic, isotonic)?
# Brief Explanations:
A hypotonic solution has a lower solute concentration (higher water concentration) than the cell. Outside solute concentration is 15% and inside is 30%, so outside is hypotonic to the cell (or the cell is in a hypotonic solution because water moves into the cell, which is characteristic of a cell in a hypotonic solution).
# Answer:
Hypotonic

Question

Explanation:

1. What is the % of glucose and sodium outside the cell?

Step1: Assume total solution is 100% (since percentages are relative to total).

Step2: Subtract solute percentage (glucose + sodium) from 100%.

Step1: Inside the cell, glucose is 30% (solute), assume total inside is 100% (cell's internal solution).

Step2: Subtract solute (glucose) percentage from 100% to get water percentage.
