How does water enter or leave the uni cellular organism by diffusion or osmosis?
osmosis is a form of diffusion. in regard to water, the diffusion type would be osmosis
What process does water enter root hair cells?
BY osmosis i.e the concentration gradient created between the outside and the root hairs cells. Water will flow from a high area of concentration to a low area of concentration across a partially permeable membrane
What is osmosis and how does it affect cells?
Respiration with and without oxygen is called?
How do mineral salts enter the root cell?
Minerals enter the root cells through a process called diffusion.Minerals are found dissolved the soil around the root. When minerals dissolve in water they break up into ions. These ions are very small and enter through the holes in the cell membrane.The absorption of mineral salts take place through the root hairs.When the mineral concentration is higher in the soil than in the cells of the root hair then the minerals pass through the cell membrane -from a higher concentration of minerals in the soiltoa lower concentration of minerals in the root hair cells.This process is called diffusion and does not require energy.
What type of diffusion helps glucose enter the cell?
facilitated diffusion

How does dissolved oxygen enter the ocean?
Diffusion.
What 3 ways can substances enter and leave a cell?
Substances can move in and out of a cell in several ways. Diffusion is when a substance will distribute itself in or out of a cell until the distribution on both sides of the cell is balanced. Active transport is when a cell transports a substance across the cell membrane that would not normally be able to pass through. Osmosis is the movement of water from areas with few dissolved dissolved substances to areas with high dissolved substances.
How does pure water enter a cell?
through diffusion and osmosis. :-)
Why is diffusion and osmosis important to the cell?
to allow nutrient to enter for sustaining the cell; or to prevent bugs to enter
What cause certain things to enter cell?
Things can enter the cell through various processes, such as osmosis, diffusion and active transport. Passive transport (diffusion/osmosis) occurs because of a difference in concentration across the membrane.
What process cause the water to enter or leave the cell?
the process that causes the water to enter and leave the cell is diffusion
How does water enter from the soil to the xylem of the plant through diffussion and osmosis?
Diffusion and osmosis are the same thing, only osmosis is specifying that it is the movement of water that is taking place.Diffusion: movement of a substance from a high concentration to a low concentration. This equalizes the concentration of the substance across the membrane.Osmosis: the movement of water by diffusion.Dialysis: the movement of solutes (dissolved substances) by diffusion.
What Dissolves particles allowing them to enter a solution?
A solvent is the liquid medium that dissolves particles so they can enter a solution. This is necessary in the processes of diffusion and osmosis.

Identify at least five ways by which a substance may enter the cell?
Osmosis, diffusion, facilitated diffusion, active transport, passive transport.
What are bands of ore that form when minerals dissolved in water and enter cracks in rocks?
veins
