The movement of water across a membrane is termed?
it is called osmosis and it is the net movement of water particles across a semi-permable membrane against the concentration gradient!
Is movement of water from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration across a?
across semipermeable membrane? That is osmosis, the net movement of water.
Which percentage would explain the net movement of water into a cell through the process of osmosis?
The percentage of the net movement of water into a cell through the process of osmosis is that the outside would be higher than the water on the inside of the cell. For example, there would be 95 percent of water on the outside, which is a higher concentration, and the inside would be 90 percent.
The process of water moving out of a cell is called?
OSMOSIS More specifically: Endosmosis is the movement of water into a cell Exosmosis is the movement of water out of a cell
Is ATP needed for osmosis?
No - osmosis is the passive movement of water.
when does the net movement of osmosis and diffusion stop?
They stop when there is equal amounts of solutes in the solvent.
What are the characteristics of a osmosis?
osmosis is the net movement of particles through a partially permeable membrane.

The net movement of water through a selectively permeable membrane?
osmosis
What is the net movement of water through a selectively permeable membrane?
Osmosis
What is the amount of salt in something?
The amount of salt in a liquid can affect how osmosis occurs. Osmosis is a net movement of molecules due to the concentration present.
How are osmosis and diffusion different?
Diffusion is the net movement of a substance through a membrane from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. Osmosis is the diffusion of water.
In osmosis which membrane provides net movement of water without movement of NaCl?
Osmosis across a selectively permeable membrane allows water across but disallows other particles across the membrane.
Is movement of water from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration across a?
across semipermeable membrane? That is osmosis, the net movement of water.
Differentiate osmosis from diffusion?
Diffusion is the net movement of molecules from a region of high concentration to a region of lower concentration. Osmosis is the net movement of water through a partially permeable membrane, from a solution of less negative water potential, to a solution of more negative water potential. Both Diffusion and osmosis occur down the concentration gradient. Basically they are the same thing, but osmosis is the diffusion of water in solution, rather then gaseous diffusion. We use the term osmosis to differentiate between gaseous transport and water movement. hope it helps..
How osmosis works?
Osmosis is the net movement of water molecules from a region of higher water potential to a region of lower water potential through a partially-permeable membrane.
How is omosis defined?
Osmosis is the diffusion of fluid through a semipermeable membrane.
