Define kinetics and kinematics?
Kinematics deals with motion regardless of the body that moves or the cause of motion. Kinetics deals with the mass of the body that moves and the cause of its motion.
What does glacial mean?
Glacial can refer to: * The effects of a glacier: Glacial till is the material that the glacier picks up as it churns up the ground it is moving over. * Something that moves very slowly...The plot development of WaterWorld was glacial. * Very concentrated acid (usually acetic acid).
Is moving a noun?
Yes, The word move is both a verb (move, moves, moving, moved) and a noun (move, moves). Examples:Verb: We will move at the end of our lease.Noun: Make your move.

What is the tendency of water to move from an area of higher water concentration to an area of lower concentration?
osmosis. The water moves down an osmotic gradient from a dilute solution of ions to a move concentrated solution through a partially permiable membrane.
Is the tendency of water to move from an area of higher water concentration to one of lower water concentration.?
osmosis. The water moves down an osmotic gradient from a dilute solution of ions to a move concentrated solution through a partially permiable membrane.
How does water move in osmosis?
Osmosis moves a solvent (eg water) to balance the concentrations of solute either side of a semipermeable membrane. The solvent is not lost.If the concentration of a solution is higher on one side of the membrane than the other, then the water moves across the membrane from the less concentrated side to the more concentrated side to dilute it until the concentrations on either side are equal.
where does osmosis move water from when water is lost but electrolytes are retained?

Why does the movement of chloride ions causes water to pass out of the cells into the mucus?
The chloride ions have made the mucus more concentrated of the ions. The water moves from a high concentration of water in the cells to a low concentration of water which is in the mucus; in order to dilute the more concentrated solution. It travels by osmosis through a partially permeable membrane.
What is isotonic hypotonic hypertonic solutions?
Isotonic is when the cell is the same concentration as the surrounding solution. Hypotonic is when the cell is more concentrated than the surrounding solution and water moves in. Hypertonic is when the cell is less concentrated than the surrounding solution and water moves out.
A semipermeable membrane has a 4 percent salt solution on the right side and a 12 percent salt solution on the left side what will most likely occur-?
Osmosis of water from the right to the left
What are effect of osmosis on potato strips?
This depends on the concentration of the salt solution. If the water potential of the salt solution is greater (less concentrated) than the cell sap of the potato cells, water would move into the potato cells, increasing the size of the potato strip. If the water potential of the salt solution is lower (more concentrated) than the cell sap of the potato cells, water would move out of the potato cells in the salt solution, decreasing the size of the potato strip.
What direction does water move when cells are placed in hypertonic solution?
Water moves out of the cell in hypertonic solution.
Why laser moves in narrow parallel beam of light?
Because a laser is just concentrated light, so it is thin from being concentrated.
What is a force that moves water into a space where a solute is more concentrated?
Osmotic Pressure
Water moves out of a cell if it is placed in this kind of solution?
hypertonic solution!
