Bulk flow, Diffusion, Osmosis, Tonicity, and Filtraion

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Question
Answer
Define Bulk flow   all molecules move together in same direction at the same time  
🗑
Bulk flow is caused by...?   -Difference in potential energy. (Always from high potential energy to low potential energy) -Difference in pressure. (Always from high pressure to low pressure)  
🗑
Bulk flow can move large numbers of molecules *blank* distances, *blank* quickly.   Long - Very  
🗑
Define diffusion   random thermal motion  
🗑
The *blank* the molecules are, the faster they move.   warmer  
🗑
The bigger the molecules are, the *blank* they move.   slower  
🗑
Diffusion is the (3 things)   -Net movement of molecules by random thermal motion -From an area of high concentration -To an area of lower concentration  
🗑
Dynamic equilibrium   -net movement of dye molecules will continue until all dye molecules are evenly distributed throughout the test tube  
🗑
At dynamic equilibrium there is *blank* of dye molecules even though there is just as much random thermal motion as before.   no net movement  
🗑
The number of molecules diffusing is proportional to what 2 things?   -the difference in concentration, and surface area across which the molecules can move.  
🗑
How fast does it take diffusion to move large numbers of molecules over SHORT distances?   very quickly  
🗑
How fast does it take diffusion to move large numbers of molecules over LONG distances?   very slowly  
🗑
Osmosis is the (4 things)   -Net movement of water molecules by random thermal motion -From area of greater water concentration -Across a selectively permeable membrane -To area of lesser water concentration  
🗑
define Hyperosmotic   if solution A has more solute particles per liter than solution B, then we say that A is... to B  
🗑
define Hyposmotic   if solution B has fewer solute particles per liter than A, we say B is... to A  
🗑
define Isosmotic   if two solutions have the same solute concentrations, we say they are...  
🗑
define Hydrostatic pressure   is the pressure created by the weight of a column of water pushing down on the bottom of the container.  
🗑
Tonicity   -compares concentration of nonprenetrating solute in solution to nonpenetrating solute concentration in cytoplasm of cell -the solution is always compared to cell. Cell is never compared to solution -refers to condition of cell when cell has reached dyn  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
