What is ozmosis?
ozmosis is the movement of water from an area high concentration of water to low concentration of water, across a semi-permiablw membrane
What is the movement of water across a semipermeable membrane from an area of high water concentration to an area of low concentration called?
Osmosis
What process - movement of water across a selectively permeable membrane from an area of high water concentration to an area of low concentration?
Osmosis is the process by which water moves across a selectively permeable membrane.
What process do water molecules cross the cell membrane?
Process in which water molecules moves across a membrane?
What does osmosis refer to?
The movement of water from an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration.
What is the movement of water across a semipermeable membrane from an area of high water concentration to an area of low water concentration called?
Osmosis
What is ozmosis?
ozmosis is the movement of water from an area high concentration of water to low concentration of water, across a semi-permiablw membrane
What is the movement of water across a semipermeable membrane from an area of high water concentration to an area of low concentration called?
Osmosis
Which term describes the movement of water molecules into and out of the cell?
Osmosis is the movement of water particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration, across a semi-permeable membrane.
Explain why osmosis is different from diffusion?
Osmosis is specifically the movement of water from an area of high water concentration to an area of low water concentration across a small semipermeable membrane. Diffusion is the movement of other particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration, either directly across the phospholipid bilayer or through protein channels imbedded in the phospholipid bilayer
What process - movement of water across a selectively permeable membrane from an area of high water concentration to an area of low concentration?
Osmosis is the process by which water moves across a selectively permeable membrane.
How is dried fruit an example of Osmosis?
Osmosis is the movement of water from an area of high water concentration to an area of low concentration across a permeable barrier. In this case, the area of high concentration is the fruit and the area of low concentration the air surrounding it, water will move down a concentration gradient into the air.
What Terms can be defined as the movement of water across a cell membrane?
Movement of water is a passive process called osmosis. It always moves from an area of higher concentration of water to a lower concentration of water.
Is a osmosis a diffusion?
Diffusion is the movement of molecules from the area of higher concentration to the area of lower concentration i.e.along concentration gradient . Osmosis is the movement of water across a semi-permeable member from a solution of lesser solute concentration to a solution of higher solute concentration .
What is osmosis in detail?
Osmosis is the movement of water across a partially permeable membrane down the concentration gradiant from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration until an equilibrium is achieved.
What is net movement of particles from an area of higher concentrations to an area of low concentrations called?
Diffusion is the passive movements of particles from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a partially permeable membrane from a region of higher water concentration to a region of lower concentration.
The movement of water across a membrance is termed?
osmosis ---- is the process where water move naturally from an area of low solute concentration to an area of highsolute concentratin
