Question

  1. what is the % of glucose outside the cell?
  2. what is the % of water outside the cell?
  3. what is the % of water inside the cell?
  4. will osmosis occur?
  5. if so, which way will water move (into or out of the cell)?
  6. will the cell swell or shrink?
  7. the cell is in what type of solution (hypertonic, hypotonic, isotonic)?

(image shows: outside the cell (beaker) has \10% glucose\, inside the cell (blue shape) has \20% glucose\)

Explanation:

Response
1. What is the % of glucose outside the cell?

Step1: Observe the diagram

The diagram shows the outside solution has 10% glucose.

Step1: Recall total percentage

The total percentage of a solution (glucose + water) is 100%.

Step2: Calculate water percentage

If glucose is 10%, then water percentage = 100% - 10% = 90%.

Step1: Recall total percentage

The total percentage of the cell's internal solution (glucose + water) is 100%.

Step2: Calculate water percentage

Given glucose inside the cell is 20%, so water percentage = 100% - 20% = 80%.

Answer:

10%

2. What is the % of water outside the cell?
