During cell injury caused by hypoxia, sodium and water move into
the cell because:
A) during cell injury cause by hypoxia, sodium and water move
into the cell because:
B) the pump that transports sodium out of the cell cannot function
because of a decrease in adenosine triphosphate (ATP) levels
C) the osmotic pressure is increased, which pulls additional
sodium across the cell membrane
D) oxygen is not available to bind with sodium to maintain it
outside of the cell correct answers >> Ans: C- the osmotic
pressure is increased, which pulls additional sodium across the
cell membrane
