Water soluble molecules often enter or exit a cell in what process?
osmosis ....i think
How do water molecules move during osmosis?
Water molecules move from the region of high concentration to region of low concentration. No ATP spent in such a process. In purification of water reverse osmosis is used.
What is the term for the movement of molecules from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration?
If it is the movement of molecules then it is diffusion. If it the movement of water then it is osmosis
In the digestive process the macromolecules are broken down into small molecules that can cross cell membranes This process is called?
dehydration synthesis
What is the name of the process when molecules move to a less concentrated area called?
Diffusion, unless it is water, in which case it is osmosis.
What passive process that move substances across membranes?
Diffusion ,osmosis
What are the passive process that moves substances across membranes?
Diffusion ,osmosis
What process do water molecules cross the cell membrane?
Process in which water molecules moves across a membrane?
What is the diffusion of water molecules called?
Osmosis is the name of the process of diffusion involving water.
How are osmosis and diffusion related?
Osmosis runs on the principle of diffusion. The diffusion of water molecules through semipermeable membrane is called osmosis. We are getting most of our drinking water by RO process (i. e. reverse osmosis). Root hairs of plant absorb water by endo-osmosis.
What is a process by which molecules moves from a high concentration to a low concentration?
Osmosis
What process uses oxygen to break down food molecules?
osmosis
What is osmosis used for?
osmosis is the process of water moving from high concentration to low concentration through semi-permeable membranes. it is used to get water to the plant for photosyntesis
How are osmosis and diffusion defferent?
by... osmosis is the diffusion of water molecule across and athe diffusion is the process by which molecules speards from area
Gas exchanges occur mainly by osmosis?
No, only water molecules move by osmosis. Gases are normally exchanged by the process of diffusion.
What is summary of the process of osmosis?
Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules through a selectivey permeable membrane. The molecules move from an area of high concentraion to an area of low concentration and vice-veca.
Water soluble molecules often enter or exit a cell in what process?
