The movement of water from an high concentration to an area of low concentration is called?
The movement of WATER from a high concentration area to a area of low concentration is called osmosis, but the the movement of MOLECULES from a high concentration area to an area of low concentration (like perfume when you spray from a high place) causes it to diffuse.
What causes a cell of shrink because of osmosis?
What causes a cell to shrink because of osmosis?
How jellyfish beat osmosis?
for many marine invertebrates, like the jellyfish... osmosis causes no problems for them, simply because the concentration of solutes inside their cells, matches that of the concentration in the sea water they reside. this means that there is no net movement of water in and out of the organisms cells. hope i helped, had a homework like this not long ago
What solution that causes a cell to swell cause of osmosis?
Solution causes a cell to swell by osmosis
What is happening with the cells start to swell up with water?
The chemical concentration inside the cell is greater than outside therefore water moves by osmosis into the swell and causes it to swell. If this continues beyond a certain point the cell can lyse (burst).
What is a osmoreculation?
I believe you are thinking of osmorelocation, right? There is no such thing as osmoreculation. In any event, the process of osmosis causes chemicals to move from a region of high concentration to regions of lower concentration. Hence, osmosis causes chemicals to become relocated. This can be called osmorelocation.

What solution causes osmosis?
Hypotonic Solution causes osmosis.
What is happening when the cell start to swell up with water?
Osmosis is taking place

What is the process that causes water to flow into one-celled organisms?
One-celled organisms absorb water through a process called osmosis. Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a semipermeable membrane from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration. This allows the organisms to maintain proper hydration levels and support various cellular functions.
What is happening with the cells start to swell up with water?
The chemical concentration inside the cell is greater than outside therefore water moves by osmosis into the swell and causes it to swell. If this continues beyond a certain point the cell can lyse (burst).
Is plasmolysis osmosis?
Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a plasma membrane from a region of low solute concentration to a region of high solute concentration.Plasmolysis is one of the results of osmosis. In other words, osmosis causes plasmolysis to occur. In plasmolysis, cell losses water through osmosis to the surroundings solution.The conditions that will allow playmolysis are :(a) the cell is more hypotonic(b) the surrounding solution is more hypertonic
What make osmosis?
The membrane has to be semi-permeable in order for anything to have the ability to pass through it. Usually, something such as water will travel through the membrane from a higher to a lower concentration gradient. This causes the two sides to reach equilibrium. Osmosis can only occur when both sides do not have the same concentration and the membrane has to be at least semi-permeable for fluids to pass through.
When a sea urchin egg is remove from the ocean and placed in freshwater the egg swells and bursts which of these causes water to enter the egg?
osmosis high salt in egg causes water to enter eggs permeable membrane via osmosis to point of bursting egg.
