What will happen when a plant is moved from a fresh water environment to a salt water environment?
Because substances move from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration, the water would move either in or out of the cell. In the fresh water, there was a lower concentration inside the cell, so the water moved into the cell. In the salt water, there would be less water on the outside of the cell, so the water would move out of the cell.
What happens when a marine clam is put in fresh water?
Salt water animals (save for the few that actually can live in either salt water or fresh water) can not survive in fresh water because their cells are isotonic to the salt water, but they would be highly hypertonic to the fresh water.That is to say, the concentration of salt within the organism's cells would be equal to the concentration of salt in the salt water, but would be far higher than the concentration of salt in the fresh water, and thus osmosis would be triggered, and the cells would "lyce" (when a cell lyces, it means it bursts due to an overabundant amount of water being forced into the cell)
When would active transport take place in a cell?
When molecules are moved from a low concentration area to a high concentration area.
Is the everglades fresh water or salt water?
Fresh but i dont think i would consider it "fresh"
What do you think would happen if we were to add fresh water to the elodea in salt water Why?
Adding fresh water to elodea in salt water would cause the elodea cells to absorb more water by osmosis. This would lead to an increase in turgor pressure within the cells, causing them to become firm and potentially burst due to the difference in salt concentration between the cell and the surrounding salt water.
How did those substance go into the water outside the dialysis bag?
The substance moved into the water through osmosis. The concentration of the substances inside the dialysis bag was higher than in the water and membrane was permeable to the substances. As such, they moved from a high to a low concentration along a concentration gradient.
Is lake Huron salt water or fresh water?
No lakes in the world have saltwater and fresh water because if salt water entered a fresh water lake, the fresh water would turn into salt waterRead more: What_lake_has_both_salt_water_and_freshwater
What would happen if a fish hat lives in fresh water was suddenly place in salt water?
It would die and so would a salt water fish in fresh water.
Describe how water moves during?
From areas of higher concentration (of water) to lower concentration (of water) - ie it fills the space. That would mean that it would flow from a solution whose concentration of solute is higher to one where the solute concentration is lower.
What is it called when water molecules move from a low concentration of a solutes to a high concentration of solutes?
Osmosis. A solution with a low concentration of solutes would have a higher concentration of water than a solution with a high concentration of solutes. So in this case, water is moving from a higher concentration of water to a lower concentration of water, which is osmosis.
What is it called when water molecules move from a low concentration of solutions to a high concentration of solutes?
Osmosis. A solution with a low concentration of solutes would have a higher concentration of water than a solution with a high concentration of solutes. So in this case, water is moving from a higher concentration of water to a lower concentration of water, which is osmosis.
What is it called when water molecules move from a low concentration of solutes to high concentration solutes?
