Question

select the true statements. large, polar solute molecules will diffuse through the phospholipids of the membrane. the volume of water inside the cell will decrease. water will move out of the cell. the concentration of solutes inside the cell will increase.

Explanation:

Large, polar solute molecules cannot easily diffuse through the non - polar phospholipids of the cell membrane due to their polarity and size. If water moves out of the cell (osmosis), the volume of water inside the cell decreases, the concentration of solutes inside the cell will increase as the solute amount remains the same while the water volume decreases. Water movement out of the cell can occur if the cell is in a hypertonic environment.

Answer:

The volume of water inside the cell will decrease.
Water will move out of the cell.
The concentration of solutes inside the cell will increase.
