a) active ion transport
passive transport of ion is concentration depends transport where ions are transported from higher concentration to lower concentration so passive transport would not occur when concentration of that particular ion is same at both side. Whereas active transport does not depends on the concentration, the transport of ion in this case is from lower to higher concentration, and active transport can occur even if there is equilibrium of concentration of that ion.

11. For a hormone to elicit a specific response from a cell, the cell must possess a. a synapse. b. a cell body. c. dendrites specific to the hormone. d. receptor proteins specific to the hormone. 12. In a cell, the difference in ion concentration between the intracellular and extracellular fluids results from a. active ion transport. b. passive diffusion of ions. c. bulk movements of intracellular and extracellular fluids. d. both active ion transport and passive diffusion of ions.
15. Given the following concentrations of ions in the intracellular and extracellular fluids of a cell; inside the cell: Na+ 12mM. K+ 150mM, CI-9mm, Ca2+0.0001mM and outside the cell: Na+ 145mM, K+ 5mM, CI- 125mM, and Ca2+ 2.5mM. Calculate the equilibrium potential for K+ (Ek) if its extracellular concentrations rise from 5 mM to 10 mM. Use the Nernst equation and the ion concentration to perform the following calculation. Comparing this to the normal Ek, is the change a depolarization...
Although the extracellular environment has a high sodium ion concentration and the intracellular environment has a high potassium ion concentration, both must be neutralized by negatively charged molecules. In the intracellular case, what is the principal anion? Group of answer choices organic anions chloride ion lipids hydrogen ions
1.) If the intracellular chloride ion concentration of a cell is 9 mM and has an extracellular concentration of 125 mM, then the equilibrium potential for chloride ion is ___ mV. (round to the nearest 10th decimal place) 2.) Typically found at the apical surface of an epithelial layer, a __ __ serves to prevent/limit paracellular transport as well as sealing and providing support to the epithelium. 3.) In order for a cell to respond to a regulatory molecule, it...
For a typical mammalian cell, the intracellular and extracellular concentrations of the chloride ion, Cl", are 4 mM and 150 mM, respectively. For the calcium ion, Ca2+, the intracellular and extracellular concentrations are 0.2 p.M and 1.8 mm, respectively. What are the equilibrium potentials in millivolts, mV, for each ion at 37 °C? .

Thankyou :)
For a substance crossing a cell membrane, the chemical driving force Select one: a. depends only on the concentration gradient if the substance is uncharged, but also depends on the electrical force if the substance is an ion. b. is the force that pushes molecules across the membrane, but only if the substance is actively transported. c. depends only on the concentration gradient, regardless of whether or not the substance is an ion d. is the total driving force on...

typed clearly.
Diffusion Is a passive process of transport. A single substance tends to move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration until the concentration is equal across a space. Facilitated transport Facilitated diffusion is the process of spontaneous passive transport of molecules or ions across a biological membrane via specific transmembrane integral proteins. Channels The integral proteins involved in facilitated transport are collectively referred to as transport proteins, and they...
