What else can I help you with?
What process causes water to or leave cell?
diffusion
What process cause the water to enter or leave the cell?
the process that causes the water to enter and leave the cell is diffusion
The main environmental factor that causes problems for cells in fresh water?
The diffusion of water into the cell causing the cell to grow, sometimes to dangerous levels.
What causes a cell to become plasmolyzed?
Higher solute concentration outside the cell than that inside causes net loss of water and plasmolysis occurs. This is due to the diffusion of water to areas of higher solute concentration.
How are diffusion and facilitated diffusion similar?
Substances enter a cell through the cell membrane
Where diffusion occur?
Diffusion occurs on the cell membrane.
What cell part plays a role in diffusion?
The plasma membrane of a cell plays a role in diffusion.
What types of transport mechanisms through the cell membrane are passive?
diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and osmosis
How does osmosis and diffusion limit the size of a cell?
diffusion and osmosis limit the size of a cell by how fast is can move
What causes oxygen to enter and carbon dioxide to leave the capillaries?
Oxygen and carbon dioxide get into and out of cells via diffusion. The gases diffuse across the thin capillary wall, and then diffuse across the cell membrane.
How does diffusion help maintain homeostasis?
Diffusion allows the cell to passively transport the waste chemicals out side of the cell so that the cell is not harmed.
What type of diffusion helps glucose enter the cell?
facilitated diffusion
