The sodium potassium uses energy in the form of ATP hydrolysis to move 3 sodium ions out of the cell and 2 potassium ions into the cell. The concentration of sodium inside is 14mM and outside is 143mM. The concentration of potassium inside is 157mM and outside is 4mM. Membrane potential is -50mV and temperature is 310K. Demonstrate that hydrolysis of ATP to ADP provides enough energy to move 3 sodium ions out and 2 potassium ions in to the...
Upon fertilization, the eggs of many species undergo a rapid change in potential difference across their outer membrane. This change affects the physiological development of the eggs. The potential difference across the membrane is called the membrane potential, Vm, which is the potential inside the membrane minus the potential outside it. The membrane potential arises when enzymes use the energy available in ATP to expel three sodium ions (Na+) actively and accumulate two potassium ions (K+) inside the membranemaking the...
1. Animal cells have a Na,K pump that couples the energy of ATP hydrolysis to transport 3 Na ions out of the cell and 2 K ions into the cell.
