Question

Transcribed Image Text:In the experimental conditions described below, how many molecules of dextrose do
you have to add to the extracellular fluid in order to make it iso-osmotic relative to
the intracellular fluid?
Intracellular fluid:
• Number of water molecules = 60
• Number of Dextrose molecules = 8
• Number of Sucrose molecules = 4
Extracellular fluid:
• Number of water molecules = 160
• Number of dextrose molecule = ????
• Number of Sucrose molecules = 0
Enter the number of molecules of dextrose in your answer (format: for 7 enter 7 or
7.00, for 7.5 enter 7.5 or 7.50, for 7.3333 enter 7.33 etc.).

- So I know that Dapagliflozin is a inhibitor of the sodium glucose cotransporter so does Dapagliflozin cause glucose to just stay in the cell or does it cause glucose to exit the cell? Also if does cause glucose to exit the cell is this a passive or active process. I would think that it would be passive since the glucose is going from high to low?? So is it faciliated passive diffusion?? Please help I am not sure if I am on the right track or not I could be totally wrong so please correct me.arrow_forwardYou have genetically modified a cell to have a thicker membrane than normal (25nm). To keepyour cells alive, you need to understand how diffusion of nutrients works.
