Should NaCl have an effect on Glucose diffusion?
No, not really. Diffusion works when molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. They move independently of one another. So even if you have a high level of NaCl, the glucose concentration will diffuse in the same manner.
What type of transport supplies a cell with glucose?
thanks to: Bobama 08. question: what transport supplies a cell with glucose? answer: The passive transport supplies a cell with glucose. A passive transport is the diffusion of particles through the proteins. The particles move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. The cell does not need to use any energy to make this happen. Whereas, an active transport is the movement of particles through proteins against the normal direction of diffusion. Particles are moved from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration. The cell must use energy to make this happen. This energy comes from the molecule ATP, which stores energy in a form that cells can use. Therefore, the passive cell transport supplies a cell with glucose.
Is diffussion transformation from high concentration to low concentration?
Yes, simple diffusion/passive diffusion is the movement of a particle from an area of high concentration to one of lower concentration.
A high concentration gradient means that the concentration of a substance is?
It means one side have high concentration.Other side has lower.
What is movement of solute from one region of high concentration to one of lower concentration called?
Are called osmosis
What condition exists when you have a high concentration of molecules in one place and a low concentration in an adjacent place?
Concentration Gradient
The net movement of water across a membrane from the solution of lower concentration to one of higher concentration is called?
This is referred to as OSMOSIS. When you say "solution of lower concentration" this implies the solute concentration is low, thus water concentration is high. So, osmosis is movement of water from a high concentration of water, to a lower concentration of water, just to be clear.
Is 10 percent glucose solution hypertonic?
No. Everything below 0.9% of NaCl is hypotonic and every solution with concentration over 0.9% is hypertonic solution. Isotonic solution (to blood) is the one that has 0.9% of NaCl, or some other concentration of another compound.
What condition exists when you have a high concentration of molecules in one place and a low concentration of moleculse on an adjacent place?
Diffusion gradient
What if a semipermeable membrane has a 2 percent salt solution on one side a 15 percent salt solutionWhat will mostly occur?
Osmosis of water from a low concentration of salt to a high concentration
Which term defines an acid?
One term that defines an acid is that it has high concentration of H+ (Hydrogen ions). Another term that defines an acid is that it has a high concentration.
What 2 examples of diffusion occurring in the human body and explain why they represent diffusion and what substances are involve and how it benefits the body?
One example of diffusion in the human body is the movement of oxygen from the lungs into the bloodstream. Oxygen molecules move from an area of high concentration (lungs) to an area of low concentration (bloodstream) through the respiratory membrane. This benefits the body by replenishing oxygen levels in the blood, which is essential for cellular respiration. Another example is the diffusion of glucose from the bloodstream into the cells. Glucose molecules move from an area of high concentration (bloodstream) to an area of low concentration (cells) through the cell membrane. This benefits the body by providing energy for cellular functions and metabolism.
