1. in what direction will the K+ ions move through the artificial channel?
A. into the cell
B. out of the cell
C. no net movement

2. Does the K+ concetration gradient promote or impede the movement of K+ ions through the artificial channel?
A. Promote
B. Impede
C. no effect

3. Does the membrane potenial promote or impede the movement of K+ ions through the artificial channel?
A. Promote
B. Impede
C. no effect

4. How does the movement of K+ ions through the artifical channel affect the membrane potential?
A. into the cell
