Best Answer

Overall none, or the cell would swell or shrink until the osmotic pressure becomes the same.

But :

most of the sodium is outside & most of the potasium is inside.

most of the proteins are inside

most of the sugar is outside (depending on insulin).

yes there is the lesser concentration of potassium ions outside the cell

their concentration is higher inside

during action potentiol k ions move inside from outside on the other hand n ions move outside from inside

their movement is associated with sodium potassium pumps

these pumps work with the utilization of energy which comes from ATP (adenoseine triphosphate)

in this way inside of the cell become more negative than outside and the cell come into action potentiol condition

Higher salt concentration outside cell than inside what would happen?

Through the process of osmosis, the water inside the cell would leave the cell in order to equalize the concentration of water relative to salt in and outside the cell. The cell would shrink. Salt is not passing through at all.


What is the normal direction of calcium transport via the calcium pump?

out of the cell, against the concentration gradient.The calcium pump moves calcium ions out of the cell - from the cytoplasm to the extracellular fluid. Because the calcium concentration is much higher outside the cell compared to the inside, this transport is against the calcium concentration gradient. Inside calcium concentrations often increase in response to hormones and nerve input. Calcium pumps are important in terminating these responses by returning calcium concentrations to resting levels.


What is the purpose of the sodium-calcium exchanger in cardiac muscle?

Unlike skeletal muscles, cardiac muscles need extracellular calcium ions in order to perform contractions. The sodium-calcium exchanger is the protein that facilitates this transfer, trading calcium from outside the cardiac cell with sodium inside the cell.


What does the rule salt sucks mean?

Salt is a solute, when it is concentrated inside or outside the cell, it will draw the water in its direction. This is also why you get thirsty after eating something salty.
