Is it osmosis or diffusion if you put an egg in vinegar?
If you put an egg in vinegar, then this process would be called osmosis because osmosis is the movement of solvent particles (in this vinegar), while diffusion is the movement of gas, solute and solvent particles from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration.
What is the only substance that can carry out osmosis?
Strictly speaking, osmosis means the diffusion of waterthrough a semipermeable membrane. I'm not certain what the generic term for other solvents would be.
How would you use osmosis in a sentence?
Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration, usually through a semi-permeable membrane.
How does boiling a potato effect osmosis?
Boiling the potato destroys the cell membrane which is a partially permeable membrane. Thus osmosis is unable to occur as osmosis occurs through a partially membrane and only diffusion would occur.
If you're buried alive in a non-airtight box under sand would your oxygen supply be maintained by osmosis?
No. Osmosis is process that only involves the movement of water. Oxygen would have to move through diffusion.
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 would osmosis be in a house?
Diffusion?
What impact does osmosis and diffusion have on life?
If osmosis and diffusion didn't exist then cells In things would be dry and shrink
What cellular process does not require ATP?
Diffusion and Osmosis.... I think. It would be better to double check ;)
How would you compare and contrast real number system?
The answer depends on what you wish to compare and contrast it with.
Are the moods of the speakers in Whitman's To a Stranger and Dickinson's If I knew you were coming in the fall the same or different and would you compare or contrast them in a compare-and-contraced?
The moods of the speakers are different, and you would contrast them in a compare-and-contrast.
Are the moods of the speakers in Whitman's To a Stranger and Dickinson's If I knew you were coming in the fall the same or different and would you compare or contrast them in a compareand contrast?
The moods of the speakers are different, and you would contrast them in a compare-and-contrast.
What type of visual aid would you use to compare and contrast information?
You would use a pie chart to compare and contrast information.
Are diffusion and osmosis types active transport?
No. (Active xport would be in the opposite direction.)
What are metaphors for 'diffusion'?
Diffusion is the movement of a mineral or nutrient moving across the concentration gradient of a membrane. The closest word to diffusion would probobly be osmosis, which is the movement of water through a membrane.

They are different and you would contrast them.
