FICK’S LAW Fick’s law* says that f (t ) =C (1 –e−kt ), where f (t ) is the concentration of solute inside a cell at time t, C is the (constant) concentration of solute surrounding the cell, and k is a positive constant. Suppose that for a particular cell, the concentration on the inside of the cell after 2 hours is 0.8% of the concentration outside the cell.
a. What is k ?
b. What is the percentage rate of change of f (t ) at time t ?
c. Write a paragraph on the role played by Fick’s law in ecology.
