| polar molecules | are asymmetrical and have a partial positive side and a partial negative side. |
| diffusion | is the movement of very small particles from an area of higher concentration to a area of lower concentration with the concentration gradient. |
| osmosis | is the diffusion of water through semi permeable membrane form an area of high water concentration to an area of low water concentration. |
| hypotonic | the solution outside of the cell is hypotonic to the solution inside of the cell if there is a higher concentration of dissolved substances outside of the cell inside. |
| hypertonic | The solution outside of the cell is hypertonic to the solution inside the cell if there is a higher concentration of dissolved substances outside then inside. |
| isotonic | the concentration of dissolved substances outside the cell is equal to the concentration inside the cell. |
