An animal cell in an open contain has a solute potential of -4.4 bars. What is its overall water potential?

• 0 bars

• -2.2 bars

• -4.4 bars

• it cannot be determined

A solution contains a concentration of 0.2 M NaCl and is at a temperature of 20C. Which of the following shows the correct setup necessary to calculate the solute potential for this solution?

• ψ_s = -1 (0.2M)(0.0831)(20C)

• ψ_s = -1(0.2M)(0.0831)(293K)

• ψ_s = -2(0.2M)(0.0831)(293K)

• ψ_s = -2 (0.2M)(0.0831)(20C)

Where will the water go?

• Into the cell
• Out of the cell
• Equally in & out - it's isotonic
• There is no water
