What process is the diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane?
This is the process of osmosis. The membrane allows a solvent (usually water) to move from an area with lower solute concentration to one with greater concentration.
Is osmosis a type of passive transport with elements such as calcium?
Osmosis is the passive transport of water, nothing else. Any other substances, such as calcium, are passively transported through the process of diffusion.
What is the effect of osmosis on cell?
Osmosis is the process whereby water or H2o is transmitted throughout the cell membrane and thus hydrated. The cell absorbs fluids via the process termed osmosis.
What process do water molecules cross the cell membrane?
Process in which water molecules moves across a membrane?
What is the process by which water is purified by pressurizing it and forcing it across a membrane?
A+ reverse osmosis
Osmosis does not require what?
Osmosis does not require a cell to expand its own energy. Osmosis is a type of diffusion process for water.
What process is the diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane?
This is the process of osmosis. The membrane allows a solvent (usually water) to move from an area with lower solute concentration to one with greater concentration.
What process is osmosis?
It is a process that diffuses water
A type of passive diffusion where water moves through a semipermeable membrane toward an area of higher solute concentration is called?
I assume you're talking about Osmosis, but I believe there are actually other similar processes as well.
What is the name of the process by which water moves into the root hairs?
Its not really by a process of osmosis. It is more by active transport. And the different concetration gradient in the soil and in the roots.
Is osmosis a type of passive transport with elements such as calcium?
Osmosis is the passive transport of water, nothing else. Any other substances, such as calcium, are passively transported through the process of diffusion.
What transport type is osmosis?
osmosis is something with water
What is a sentence using the word osmosis?
Water moves by the process of osmosis in and out of cells.
Does osmosis reproduce?
Osmosis is a process and not a living being. So, it cannot reproduce.
Is osmosis a process of cellular respiration?
No, osmosis happens anywhere there is a semipermeable membrane.
Which cell process will be stopped?
osmosis
What is the diffusion of water molecules called?
Osmosis is the name of the process of diffusion involving water.
