Question
a A group of sientists studied the uptake of sodium of ions by living tissue
(animal samples). To do this, they:
• Used iwo flasks, Fand G
• Placed equal masses of tissue into cach flask
• Added an equal amɔunt of sodium (Na+) ions in each flask
• Added a substance that preverts ATP formation by cel's in flask F
• Measured the concentration of remaining sodium ions in cach flask
The resuit of this investigation is shown in the graph below.

Time / minutes
i From the graph, calculate the rate of uptake of sodium ions by the ceils
in flask G during the first 20 minutes of this investigation.
ii. At the end of this investigation, the scientists concluded that the cells in
flask G took up the sodium ions by active transport.
Examine how the information given supports the conclusion.
i. The curve for flask F becomes constant after 20 mimutes.
Explain why.
