CELL DAMAGE

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
increased cell membrane permeability
A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The solubility diffusion model predicts that lower membrane fluidity will reduce permeability by reducing the ability of permeant molecules to diffuse through the lipid bilayer.

Detailed explanation-2: -The permeability of a membrane is affected by temperature, the types of solutes present and the level of cell hydration. Increasing temperature makes the membrane more unstable and very fluid. Decreasing the temperature will slow the membrane.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cloudy swelling results from impaired regulation of sodium and potassium at the level of cell membrane.
