The movement of which kind of molecules is controlled by osmosis?
water
How do you decrease the number of molecules in a glass of water without changing the number of water molecules?
If the water is impure, you could remove the impurities. If the water is pure, it's impossible to decrease the number of molecules without changing the number of water molecules, which would be the only kind of molecules present in that case.
The presence of which kind of molecules determines the concentration of other substance in the body?
Water
How does Cohesion cause water to stick together?
cohesion is when molecules of a certain similar kind (in this case water molecules) are more attracted to each other than to those of other substances. Water molecules are strongly cohesive as each molecule may make four hydrogen bonds to other water molecules.
What is a term referring to water fearing or non water soluble substances?
Hydrophobic
What are water-fearing molecules called?
hydrophobia
What are molecules that are water fearing and try to stay away from water or another polar molecules?
Hydrophilic
did the oil dissolve in water?
Oils are hydrophobic, or “water fearing.” Instead of being attracted to water molecules, oil molecules are repelled by them. As a result, when you add oil to a cup of water the two don't mix with each other.
Which kind of molecules is controlled by osmosis?
water molecules
Are fats hydrophillic?
No. Hydrophillic freely associates with water, readily entering into solution, and water loving. Fats, or lipids, are hydrophobic, which are incapable of freely associating water molecules, insoluble, and water-fearing.

What happends to water molecules when they are heated?
IT BOILS, what kind of question is this?
How the polarity of phosopholids relate to the overall arrangements of the fluid mosaic model?
The primary structure of a cell membrane is a double layer of phospholipid molecules which have heads that are hydrophilic (water-loving). These face outwards and tails are hydrophobic (water-fearing) and these face inwards.Because of this polarity the molecules arrange themselves in bilayers in water.
Fearing of water is called?
Hydrophobia.
What kind of education did the Indians have?
they have the gift of not fearing heights...
Which kind of molecules determines the concentrations of other substances in the body?
