If cells are placed in a solution with a high concentration of solute water will?
the molecules will pass from the salt solution to the cells.
How does the water in the cells behave when in high or low concentrations of water?
In high solute concentrations water will flow out of the cell. In low solute concentrations water will flow into the cell.
Why brain cells swell when the blood plasma is very dilute?
Osmosis is the movement of water from a High Water (Dilute Solution) to a Low Water (Strong Solution). If blood plasma becomes very dilute with water, when it travels to the brain the brain cells will swell because the are taking on too much water. This happens because the high concentration of water (in the blood) is moving to the lower concentration of water (brain cells) making the cells swell as they are taking on too much water.
What is water is the important solvent in your body?
Because our bodies contain a high percentage of water, in which is dissolved the compounds that we need to maintain life. Water is in our blood, tissue fluid, and cells.
Is the diffusion of water?
yes. diffusion is the movement of molecules from a high concentration to a low concentration. think of plant cells. when saltwater is added to freshwater elodea cells it sucks the water that was in a high concentration from inside the cell, causing the cell to have a lower concentration of water molecules. a type of diffusion that involves water is called osmosis. Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a membrane.

What is a characteristic of soil with high percentage of clay?
Soil with a high concentration of clay is able to hold water.
What is osmosis diffusion?
(WATER CELLS ONLY)Water cells move from a higher concentration gradient (more water cells) to a lower concentration gradient (less water cells) through a partially permeable membrane (allows certain substances in and out) and goes with the concentration gradient (high -> low)

How does water affect the appearance of a vegetable?
The amount of water in the cells of a vegetable affect the turgor pressure in the cells. The turgor pressure is how much pressure is in the cells. If the cells of the vegetable do not have enough water, the turgor pressure is low, so the plant wilts, making the vegetable look shriveled or small. If the cells of the vegetable have the right amount of water, the turgor pressure is high enough to keep the plant from wilting, so the vegetable looks healthy. If the cells of the vegetable have too much water, the turgor pressure is very high, and the cells may burst open, making the vegetable look shriveled and small.
If you had high hematocrit would your hemoglobin be high or low?
RBCs are made up of hemoglobin, therefore if the hematocrit is high you should expect a high hemoglobin determination.
Two reasons why heating to a high temperature is not a suitable method for finding the percentage of water in all hydrates?
Some compounds can lost not only the water; they can decompose at high temperature.
