What is the movement of water and solutes through a membrane because of hydrostatic pressure called?
osmosis
What is the movement of material through a membrane?
This movement occurs through several mechanisms.
Movement of water rather than a solute through a cell membrane is called?
osmosis
What is it called when the movement of materials through a cell membrane without using the cells energy?
Passive transport does not use energy to pass through a cell membrane. active transport uses energy to pass through a cell membrane.
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 is the movement of water and solutes through a membrane because of hydrostatic pressure called?
osmosis
What happens to an egg after soaking it in vinegar then soaking it in sugar solution?
It becomes heavier. The movement of solvent through a membrane produces a pressure called the osmotic pressure. This happens when the pressure in which the solvent is flowing is raised to the equivalent of the pressure moving through the membrane from the hypotonic side.
What is the movement of water through diffusion called?
Osmosis is the movement of water across the cell membrane or the movement of water through diffusion. :)
What is the movement of material through a membrane?
This movement occurs through several mechanisms.
Which term describes the movement of water molecule in and out of the cell?
The movement of water through a semipermeable membrane is called osmosis.
What terms describes the movement of water molecule in and out of cell?
The movement of water through a semipermeable membrane is called osmosis.
The equal movement of water from either side of a semipermeable membrane is known as what?
The movement of of a solute like water is called osmosis.
Movement of water rather than a solute through a cell membrane is called?
osmosis
What is it called when the movement of materials through a cell membrane without using the cells energy?
Passive transport does not use energy to pass through a cell membrane. active transport uses energy to pass through a cell membrane.
The process that occurs when a physical pressure pushes materials through a barrier is called?
Osmosis is the movement of water across the membrane, while diffusion is the movement of solids across a membrane Diffusion ordinarily does not require a membrane.The movement of particles of a substance by their own kinetic energy from their higher concentration to lower concentration is called diffusion.
What is the movement of water through a selectively permeable membrane?
The movement of water through a selectively permeable membrane is called diffusion. Water will always diffuse down a concentration gradient, from high solute concentration to low solute concentration.
The Movement of water molecules through membrane toward an area where they occur in a lower cocentration is called?
Osmosis
