Zhang 1 Hao Zhang Professor Warmbold English 120‚ Section 06 24 March 2013 In the article “2b or not 2b”‚ David Crystal begins with discussing how others such as John Humphry argued that texters are “vandals who are doing to our language what Genghis Khan did to his neighbors 800 years ago. They are destroying it” (335). This is also the common belief of most people. People often argue about the bad points of technology over our language. However‚ Crystal believes that texting can improve

Activity 1 1. Size and concentration of the solute 2. It was too large to pass‚ as predicted 3. I predicted that the glucose would diffuse since it is small enough but the albumin is much too large to pass through the membrane. The experiment produced this result. Activity 2 1. Neither way requires ATP but facilitated diffusion requires carrier protein molecules for diffusion to occur. 2. By increasing the number of carriers more glucose can pass at a time increasing the rate‚

PHYSIOEX 9‚ ACTIVITY #3 Review Questions ACTIVITY #1 1. Explain why increasing extracellular K+ reduces the net diffusion of K+ out the neuron through the K+ leak channels? 2. Explain why increasing extracellular K+ causes the membrane potential to change to a less negative value. How well did the results compare with your predictions? 3. Explain why a change in extracellular Na+ did not significantly alter the membrane potential in the resting neuron? 4. Discuss the relative permeability
