What is a solution in which the concentration of dissolved substances is lower than the concentration inside the cell?
the answer to this question is : hypotonic solution
Which ions electrical charges oppose the direction of movement that is caused by their concentration gradient?
Any ion that is positive but has a higher concentration inside the cell or is negative and has a higher concentration outside the cell. Any ion that is positive but has a higher concentration inside the cell or is negative and has a higher concentration outside the cell.
What best describes the Na and K concentrations across a neuron's plasma membrane?
The Na concentration is higher outside of the neuron's plasma membrane, while the K concentration is higher inside the neuron's plasma membrane. This creates an electrochemical gradient that allows for the generation and transmission of electrical signals in neurons.
There is a greater concentration of na plus and there is a greater concentration of k plus in the cell?
There is a greater concentration of Na plus outside and there is a greater concentration of K plus inside the cell. When the stimulus is delivered, the permeability of the membrane is changed, and Na plus diffuses into the cell, initiating the depolarization of the membrane.
A resting potential is caused by a difference in the concentration of certain ions inside and outside the cell?
True
What happens when the concentration of dissolved substances is greater outside the cell than inside?
Particles always move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Therefore, if the concentration of dissolved substances is greater outside the cell, they will travel into the cell until there is an equal concentration of the substance on both sides of the cell wall.
What is cells solution in which the concentration of dissolved substance in the solution is the same as concentration of dissolved substance inside a cell?
isotonic
What kind of environment is described when the concentration of dissolved substances is greater inside the cell or outside?
When greater than the cell it is hypertonic lower it is hypotonic
What is the relationship of dissolved materials inside and outside the cell in a isotonic hypertonic and hypotonic solutions?
isotonic, hypotonic, and hypertonic solutions are all composed of dissolved materials,and a cell can be placed in these solutions resulting in osmosis of some form.
What is a solution in which the concentration of dissolved substances is lower than the concentration inside the cell?
the answer to this question is : hypotonic solution
What is isotonic concentration?
Isotonic concentration is when the concentration of soletutes inside and outside of the cell are equal in concentration
What kind of solution exists when the substances dissolved outside the cell are more abundant than those in the cytoplasm?
When solute concentration is higher on the outside of the cell, the cell is said to be in a hypertonic solution. This will result in the diffusion of water from inside the cell to outside the cell.
The concentration of material is greater on the outside of the cell than the inside in what solution?
A solution in which the salt concentration is greater outside the cell than inside the cell is known as
What would happen if a cell containing dissolved solute was place in pure water?
Water would enter the cell by osmosis in order to equalize the solute concentration/water concentration between inside and outside. The cell would tend to rupture.
The inside of cells have a higher concentration of what?
The inside of cells have a higher concentration of Potassium. But there's a higher concentration of Sodium outside the cell.
When is a substance most likely to diffuse into a cell?
If there is the concentration of substance inside the cell is lesser than outside and cell membrane is permeable to the substance.
Which ions electrical charges oppose the direction of movement that is caused by their concentration gradient?
Any ion that is positive but has a higher concentration inside the cell or is negative and has a higher concentration outside the cell. Any ion that is positive but has a higher concentration inside the cell or is negative and has a higher concentration outside the cell.
