Assume the following:
- Sucrose is too large/polar to move through the membrane
- There is no protein channel for sucrose
- There are protein channels for fructose and glucose
- there is sucrase (an enzyme that breaks down sucrose) inside of the cell
What would happen?
Take a minute to think about this answer (don't rush through it) - maybe you can draw this out to help.
The sucrose would not be able to cross the membrane and would not break down so nothing would happen
The sucrose would not be able to cross the membrane and would not break down so the sucrose wouldn't move but the water would move into the cell to dilute the sucrose
The enzyme sucrase would break down the sucrose into glucose and fructose. The high concentration of glucose and fructose inside the cell would then cause the glucose and fructose to move through facilitated diffusion out of the cell until they reach dynamic equilibrium
