Question

Question 1 1 pts The Nat/K'-ATPase "pumps" both Na* and K up their concentration gradients. This is an example of: Active transport Equilibrium Facilitated diffusion Osmosis Simple diffusion Question 2 1 pts Which of the following is true about the body's internal fluids? Extracellular fluids are those found only in the liquid part of the blood. Fluids do not exchange material throughout the body and with the environment. Interstitial fluid lies between the circulatory system (including blood) and the cells. Intracellular fluid contains approximately 1/3 of the volume of body water. None of these are true

Explanation / Answer

1) a- active transport. As it is going up the concentration gradient means it will require energy hence active transport.

2) e- none of these are true.

Extracellular fluid is the body fluid which is outside the cell.

It has 2 parts - one is the plasma which is surrounding the blood cells.. other is the interstitial fluid which is surroisurro all the other cells.

Fluids do exchange materials throughout the body.

Interstitial fluid lies in the circulatory system too i.e in the form of plasma.

Intracellular fluid is 2/3 of the volume of body water
