During cell injury caused by hypoxia, sodium and
water move into the cell because:
Question 4 options:
During cell injury caused by hypoxia, sodium and
water move into the cell because:
The pump that transports sodium out of the cell
,cannot function because of a decrease in adenosine
triphosphate (ATP) levels.
The osmotic pressure is increased, which pulls
additional sodium across the cell membrane
Oxygen is not available to bind with sodium to
maintain it outside of the cell.
The pump that transports sodium out of the cell cannot
function because of a decrease in adenosine triphosphate
(ATP) levels.
