An Artificial Cell Consisting of an Aqueous Solution Enclosed in a Selectively

Question 63

Essay

An artificial cell consisting of an aqueous solution enclosed in a selectively permeable membrane is immersed in a beaker containing a different solution. The membrane is permeable to water and to the simple sugars glucose and fructose but impermeable to the disaccharide sucrose.
An artificial cell consisting of an aqueous solution enclosed in a selectively permeable membrane is immersed in a beaker containing a different solution. The membrane is permeable to water and to the simple sugars glucose and fructose but impermeable to the disaccharide sucrose.     (A)Draw solid arrows to indicate the net movement of solutes into and/or out of the cell. (B)Is the solution outside the cell isotonic, hypotonic, or hypertonic? (C)Draw a dashed arrow to show the net osmotic movement of water, if any. (D)Will the artificial cell become more flaccid, more turgid, or stay the same? (E)Eventually, will the two solutions have the same or different solute concentrations?
