∙ 11y agoSo osmosis and diffusion help amoeba survive. they help amoebas by giving it nutrients and oxygen.
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoi think its because its thin so has a thin diffusion gradient. also it has a large SA:vol ratio
hope that helps

What are the four functions of the cell membrane that help a cell maintain homeostasis?
by diffusion and osmosis
How is diffusion and osmosis important to living organisms?
Osmosis is very important because (for example if...) a cell is much more concentrated on on side then the other, (through the process of osmosis) the water will be diffused into the other side, creating an even concentration.FOR MORE HELP ON THE SUBJECT (OR TO HELP UNDERSTAND THE DEFINITION BETTER) LOOK BELOWDEFINITION(s):Osmosis: the diffusion of water through a membrane Diffusion: the movement of particles from areas where they are more concentrated to where they are less concentrated
How do amoeba move in water?
Amoeba possess a contractile vacuole for excretion and osmoregulation . Undigested food is excreted by exocytosis . Some wastes wastes, and CO2 are excreted through the plasma membrane by diffusion .
What are the similarities between diffusion and facilitated diffusion?
Diffusion is the main method by wich small molecules move across the cell membrane. while many cellular processes depend on osmosis because cells cannot function properly without adequate water. Facilitated diffusion works through channels and Osmosis only works with water.
Does diffusion require help from vesicles?
No, Diffusion requires transport proteins.
Is pumping air into a tire diffusion osmosis or active transport?
help

by diffusion and osmosis
Why can amoeba have exchange of gases through its body surface?
Gas exchange in Amoeba basically takes place across the whole body surface by diffusion. With their huge surface area which is relative to the volume, single celled animals can productively get oxygen and also remove carbon dioxide via diffusion across the surface. have i helped u from this answer my name is yash verma
Why is osmosis important to a cell?
Osmosis helps in transportation of water and minerals. They help in removal of waste. Diffusion is used for transportation of material inside the cells.
How diffusion and osmosis help us daily lives include topics on food and medicine?
aba malay ko..
What isit called when a molecule moves across a semipermeable membrane into a region of higher concentration?
When a molecule moves to a higher concentration it needs help of a pump. We call this facilitated diffusion. Osmosis only deals with the movement of water.
What help maintain homeostasis in cells does not require energy?
Simple diffusion and osmosis help maintain homeostasis in cells and do not require the cell to expend energy.
How does osmosis and diffusion help organ transplants?
Organs to be transplanted lack oxygen, nutrients and other essential materials, since they have been idle for a long time.Osmosis and diffusion help these organs filled with these essential materials, such as water, nutrients and materials, as if they were attached in the human body.BTW, osmosis is the flow of water from less concentration of solutes to high. Diffusion is the scattering of particles from higher cont to lower.
How does diffusion help cells survive?
Diffusion helps the cell get nutrition by letting nutrition or food flow into the cell.

How does concentration affect the rate of diffusion?
the concentration of saline affects the rate of diffusion through the process of osmosis and diffusion. try the experiment of the 3 cell membranes
