question 2

Short Answer

Which of the following pairs of aqueous solutions will exert equal osmotic pressures across a normal cell membrane after steady-state conditions have been established? $$\begin{array} { l l l } & \underline { \text { Solution } \mathrm { A }} & \underline { \text { Solution B } } \\\text { A. } & 10 \% \text { albumin } & 10 \% \mathrm { IgG } \\\text { B. } & 100 \mathrm { mmol } / \mathrm { L } \text { NaCl } & 200 \mathrm { mmo } / \mathrm { L } \mathrm { CaCl } _ { 2 } \\\text { C. } & 300 \mathrm { mOsm } / \mathrm { L } \text { glucose } &300 \mathrm { mOsm } / \mathrm { L } \mathrm { urea } \\\text { D. } & 300 \mathrm { mOsm } / \mathrm { L } \text { glycerol } & 300 \mathrm { mOsm } / \mathrm { L } \mathrm { NaCl } \\\text { E. } & 300 \mathrm { mOsm } / \mathrm { L } \text { glycerol } & 300 \mathrm { mOsm } / \mathrm { L } \text { urea }\end{array}$$
