Which of the following is an example of carrier-mediated transport? (a) simple diffusion (b) facilitated diffusion (c) movement of water through aquaporins (d) osmosis (e) osmosis when a cell is in a hypertonic solution
Which of the following statements about Osmosis is/are correct? (Assume solutions A and B are separated by a semipermeable membrane that is permeable only to water.) (a) If solution A is 0.1M NaCl + 0.1M sucrose and solution B is 0.3M sucrose, then there will be no net movement of water between compartments A and B. (b) If solution A is 0.1M NaCl + 0.2M sucrose and solution B is 0.3M sucrose, then there will be net movement of water from compartment B to compartment A. (c) If solution A is 0.2M NaCl + 0.05M sucrose and solution B is 0.3M sucrose, then there will be net movement of water from compartment A to compartment B. (d) Both (a) and (b) are correct and (c) is incorrect (e) Statements (a), (b) and (c) are all correct
