What is a similarity between osmosis and diffusion?
they are both the movement of particles from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration down a concentration gradient
What is the difference between amalyase and lipase?
They are enzymes in the body, amylase breaks down sugars and lipase breaks down fats.
What is the difference between a hill and a pill?
A hill is hard to get up and a pill is hard to get down
What is the difference between your mom's face and a butt?
I didn't jelly my way down a butt last night
The difference between cellular respiration and fermintation?
callular respiration breaks down food with oxygen and fermentation breaks down food with out using oxygen
What is difference between active and passive?
Active transport requires an input of energy and can move substabces against their concentration gradient. Passive transport does not require added energy and can move substances only down their concentration gradient.
What is a concentration gradient?
It is the difference in concentration (molecules of a solute per volume of solution) between two locations. Because of the motion of molecules, they are said to diffuse (move, spread) from an area of greater concentration to an area of lesser concentration. Some molecules are always moving in the opposite direction, but the overall trend is "down" the gradient until equilibrium is established between the two regions. And, generally, the larger the gradient or difference, the faster the rate of the diffusion.
What does it means if a substance moves down its concentration gradient?
If a substance moves down its concentration gradient, it means that it is moving from an area where it has a high concentration to an area where it has a low concentration. This is known as diffusion.
What is concerntration gradient?
As used in the process of diffusion, the concentration gradient is the graduated difference in concentration of a solute within a solution (as expressed per a unit distance). Molecules tend to move from areas of greater concentration to areas of lesser concentration. i.e. down the gradient.
What is the difference between us invert level and ds invert level?
US = Up Stream invert level DS= Down Stream invert level If detailed on a manhole, the difference being the gradient of pipe in chamber from one end to the other.
Why do winds not simply flow down a pressure gradient?
Why don't winds simply flow down a pressure gradient?
How does gradient affect diffusion?
A concentration gradient is a difference in concentration across a space. It affects diffusion and osmosis because both of these passive transports move down their concentration gradients, or from an area of high concentration to low concentration.
Most water enters and leaves cells by?
Water moves between cells by osmosis, down a concentration gradient.
What is the difference between cut in and break down voltage?
what is the difference between cut- in and cut -out
What is the meaning of 'down the concentration'?
Do you mean "down the concentration gradient"?
What is the difference between touchscreen and haptic technology?
haptic technology or haptic feedback is used on touch screens. not all touch screens have this feature and as of now only certains types can have it. haptic feedback is when you press down on a touch screen and the device will vibrate to show a button is being pressed.
What is moving down the concentration gradient in all cells?
All small molecules can move down the concentration gradient as water O2, CO2 etc.
