Diffusion-Biology
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Diffusion | Moving from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration |
| Hypotonic | Less solute molecules outside the cell. Water will move into the cell. |
| Hypertonic | More solute molecules outside the cell. Water will move out of the cell. |
| Isotonic | If the concentration of solute is equal on both sides. The water will move back and forth. |
| Active Transport | Energy required to transport |
| Passive Transport | No energy needed to transport |
| Exocytosis | Gets rid of particles |
| Endocytosis | Takes in large particles/liquids by engulfing them |
| Solvent | Liquid capable of dissolving other substances |
| Solute | Dissolved substance |
| Osmosis | Diffusion of water |
| Facilitated Diffusion | Diffusion by transporting proteins |
