Is most probably through osmosis, when water moves from a region of it's high concentration to a region of it's low concentration.
Movement of water molecules.
There is no net movement of water molecules in and out of the cell.
Diffusion is a physical process that involves the spontaneous movement of molecules from where they are plentiful to where they are scarce. This process could occur in either directions and is dependent on the direction of the concentration gradient. If for example, there are more water molecules outside the cell, then the water molecules would diffuse into the cell and if there are more water molecules inside the cell, they would diffuse out of the cell. I both cases, the water molecules have to travel through the cell membrane, which brings us to the next concept: Osmosis - which is the diffusion of molecules along a concentration gradient through a semi-permeable membrane (the cell membrane)
Is Diffusion the movement of molecules from a greater to a lesser concentration.
False. There will still be movement of water molecules across the membrane, but there will be no net movement. This means that the number of molecules coming into the cell will equal that going out, and equilibrium will therefore be maintained.
Movement of water molecules.
osmosis
its not homeostasis
There is no net movement of water molecules in and out of the cell.
osmosis
No
decreased movement of molecules entering the cells decreased movement of molecules entering the cells
If there was less H20 molecules in the cell than outside
Osmosis is the movement of water particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration, across a semi-permeable membrane.
No. Osmosis is a form of passive transport.
