Question
Chapter 5.5, Problem 1EQ
Summary Introduction
To describe: The observations about particular cell types in the human body that were the basis of experimental strategy.
Introduction: The passive transports involve downhill movement of molecules without the expenditure of energy. The downhill transport means the movement of the molecules from the region of the high concentration to the region of their low concentration. It has a slower rate of diffusion because of its dependency to the difference between the concentrations of the solute.

Conclusion
Animal cell cultures usually require 5% carbon dioxide in the incubator. This gas along with sodium bicarbonate found in the culture medium helps to regulate what property of the cell medium? (i.e. what environmental condition does carbon dioxide/sodium bicarbonate regulate?)

- Porous dialysis tubing is used to create a "model cell" containing glucose and albumin, a protein. This "cell" is placed into a beaker containing water and Biuret reagent. Initially the "cell" is colorless and the beaker is light blue. At the end of the experiment, the "cell" is light purple and the beaker is still light blue. What accounts for the color change observed? O Biuret reagent entered the cell and reacted with protein. Glucose exited the cell and reacted with Biuret reagent.
