For the na+ k+ question I was wondering is it possible that a certain confirmation of the pump has the same affinity for both na+ and k+. also, the question about Alzheimer's is it that they lack chaperone proteins or just that the chaperone proteins were unable to properly fold the proteins?

Thank you, In advance

Looking at the first photo:

Option 1 is right
Option 2 is right
Option 3 is right
Option 5 is wrong: That part of the molecule facing the cytoplasm has a high affinity for Na+ and a low affinity for K+, while that part facing the outside has a high affinity for K+ and a low affinity for Na+.
Option 6 is right

For the second question, I believe it has to do with misfolding due to the chaperones, so (b)

I hope I helped!
