If, after adding those channels, you were to wait long enough for the system to equilibrate (i. e., reach a stable state in which the number and type of molecule in each compartment no longer changes much over time), about how many peptide molecules would you expect to find on the left side of the cell and how many on the right? How about the water molecules? Explain your reasoning.

1 We can infer that when permeable channels are added to the peptides and a cell is incorporated in water, the concentration of peptides and water will change, generating an equilibrium causing an equivalence of equal intracellular and extracellular concentration

2. If there is no alteration and the environment is in equilibrium, we can say that there will be an equal concentration of petids and water in the intracellular and extracellular space. If we have 40 peptides on the left side, the right side will move looking for a balance and that both environments are the same, becoming 60 for each of the spaces
