It happens everywhere in the cell, mostly in the cytoplasm.

Where did osmosis occur in your body?
Cell
When osmosis do not occur?
Osmosis across the cell membrane doesn't occur when the concentration gradients, and therefore the water potential inside and outside of the cell are the same
How much energy ATP is needed for osmosis to occur?
The cell does not need to use any ATP in order for osmosis to occur.
What part of the cell does osmosis occur?
it occurs in the cell membrane(through the cell membrane really)
What are the consequences for a cell if it cannot carryout osmosis and diffusion effectively?
The cell will work but not very well because osmosis and diffusion did not occur but sometimes it will work anyways
How does boiling a potato effect osmosis?
Boiling the potato destroys the cell membrane which is a partially permeable membrane. Thus osmosis is unable to occur as osmosis occurs through a partially membrane and only diffusion would occur.
What will most occur when a cell is place into a saline solution that has a highersalt concentration than inside the cell?
water rushes into it by osmosis
Where does osmosis occur?
osmosis occurs in the roots
How does osmosis occur in an egg cell?
Osmosis occurs in an egg cell if you place it in liquids. If you put it in vinegar, the egg's shell will start to dissolve. Then, you can test osmosis in water or salt water. Because the egg is considered a cell, it will swell the egg cell with plain water (meaning it will increase the egg's mass). With salt water, the egg cell will shrink in mass.
What is nonpermeable?
It means that things, usually water cannot pass through it, and so osmosis could not occur in that cell.
When does movement of a substance across a cell membrane using chemical energy occur?
During osmosis and uptake of minerals.
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
