Given reason :In Donnan equilibrium of passive absorption of minerals

1.	Given reason :In Donnan equilibrium of passive absorption of minerals concentration of cations increases inside the cell.
Answer» 1. Minerals exist in soil in the form of charged particles. 2. Certain negatively charged (anions) get accumulated on the inner side of cell membrane after their entry inside cell. 3. These anions cannot diffuse out through semipermeable cell membrane. 4. Thus additional mobile cautions are needed inside the cell to balance these fixed anions. 5. Hence, the concentration of cations increases inside the cell.

1. Minerals exist in soil in the form of charged particles.

2. Certain negatively charged (anions) get accumulated on the inner side of cell membrane after their entry inside cell.

3. These anions cannot diffuse out through semipermeable cell membrane.

4. Thus additional mobile cautions are needed inside the cell to balance these fixed anions.

5. Hence, the concentration of cations increases inside the cell.
