Question
Answer
show The concentration gradient of water  
🗑
show down a conc gradient  
🗑
Osmosis is a ____ process and ______energy   show
🗑
show When there is a difference in water concentration between 2 sides of the membrane  
🗑
What is osmosis?   show
🗑
What is osmotic pressure?   show
🗑
show the greater the osmotic pressure  
🗑
show Whether the cell will shrink or swell  
🗑
show Double  
🗑
When a solute is able to pass through a membrane...   show
🗑
show Towards Solutes  
🗑
show Increased osmotic pressure. The high concentration of molecules in one side of the membrane results in an increased force of water movement to the high concentration side of the membrane which results in an increased osmotic pressure.  
🗑
show The concentration on both sides of the membrane was equal  
🗑
show Equilibrium is reached & there will be no osmotic pressure change because the molecules diffuse through the membrane pores  
🗑
Describe one way in which osmosis is similar to simple diffusion   show
🗑
show in simple diffusion ions and molecules are transported across the membrane. However in osmosis only solvents (such as water) are being transported through a selectively permeable membrane.  
🗑
