In passive transport materials move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration through a cell membrane.?
yes
Which term refers to the diffusion of water throughout a membrane?
Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a membrane (semipermeable) membrane. Water always moves from a high concentration of water to a low concentration of water.
What is simple diffusion of water through a membrane called?
Osmosis is the term for the diffusion of solute through a membrane from a place of higher concentration to a place of lower concentration. The process of osmosis will continue until the concentration is equal on both sides of the membrane.
How do water molecules move through the cell membrane during omosis?
With a specific channel protein called aquaporins.
How does osmosis explain the movement of water across cell membranes?
Osmosis is the movement of water from a solution of high concentration to a solution of lower concentration through a membrane. Water passes through the membrane, diluting the solution of higher concentration on the other side, until both solutions on either side of the membrane have equal concentrations.
In passive transport materials move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration through a cell membrane.?
yes
What does osmosis do in a cell?
the tendency of a fluid, usually water, to pass through a semipermeable membrane into a solution where the solvent concentration is higher, thus equalizing the concentrations of materials on either side of the membrane.

Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a membrane (semipermeable) membrane. Water always moves from a high concentration of water to a low concentration of water.
What is simple diffusion of water through a membrane called?
Osmosis is the term for the diffusion of solute through a membrane from a place of higher concentration to a place of lower concentration. The process of osmosis will continue until the concentration is equal on both sides of the membrane.
What does osmosis do?
The random movement of water molecules through a partially permeable membrane from a higher concentration to a lower concentration.
What materials does osmosis transport?
Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane from where it(water) is in higher concentration to where it(water) is in lower concentration.
What process moves materials through a cell from areas of low concentration to areas of higher concentration?
diffusion
How does osmosis happen?
Diffusion of fluid through a semipermeable membrane from a solution with a low solute concentration to a solution with a higher solute concentration until there is an equal concentration of fluid on both sides of the membrane
Where and when does osmosis occur?
Diffusion of fluid through a semipermeable membrane from a solution with a low solute concentration to a solution with a higher solute concentration until there is an equal concentration of fluid on both sides of the membrane .
Two difference between osmosis and diffusion?
1. higher concentration to lower concentration 2. through a semi-permeable membrane
What is the rule of osmosis?
Osmosis is the movement of water from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration through a partially permeable membrane.
Which process would describe the movement of sugar molecules through a membrane from a region of higher concentration of a region of lower concentration?
Diffusion
