Questão 10
Questão
The sodium-potassium ATPase pump has three main functions. It exports 3 Na+ for 2 K+ against their concentration gradients. Per action, one net positive charge moves outside of the cell. These maintain the ionic gradients and make the membrane inside the cell ~10-15 mV more negative than the outside. What is the third primary function?
Responda
-
Building the osmotic gradient - inducing osmosis from inside to outside the cell.
-
Building the osmotic gradient - inducing osmosis from outside to inside the cell.
-
Counteracting the osmotic gradient - inhibiting osmosis from inside to outside the cell.
-
Counteracting the osmotic gradient - inhibiting osmosis from outside to inside the cell.
Questão 11

They may swell and rupture.
-
They may shrink in volume.
-
They may decrease in membrane potential (membrane inside the cell becomes more negative)
-
They may increase in intracellular potassium.
