If a negatively charged ion is more concentrated outside the cell, the forces required to balance the chemical gradient would be

directed ________. Thus, the equilibrium potential for this ion would be ________ charged. If a negatively charged ion is more concentrated outside the cell, the forces required to balance the chemical gradient would be directed ________. Thus, the equilibrium potential for this ion would be ________ charged. outward : negatively outward : neutrally inward : positively outward : positively inward : negatively

Answer:

If a negatively charged ion is more concentrated outside the cell, the forces required to balance the chemical gradient would be directed <u>outwards</u>. Thus, the equilibrium potential for this ion would be <u>negatively</u> charged.

Explanation:

The resting membrane potential is normally due to small excess of negative ions inside of positive ions outside the cells.

The negative charges are attracted to the positive charges and they form a thin layer of negative inside and positive outside of the cell. The rest of extracellular and intracellular fluid remains normal.

If negatively charged ion is more concentrated outside the cell, then the forces will move outwards, in order to balance the gradient. Thus resulting in negative equilibrium potential (The potential at which no movement of the ion occur across the membrane)

bagirrra123 [75]

    I would choose to make sure the local people value the forest especially the kipunji monkeys. How I would do that is by convicing them that leaving the forest is more profitable than cutting it down for agriculture use by suggesting that tourists will pay to visit their land. Tourism would boost the economy and value of the land. The local people can make a big profit  and save their forest too.
