What is the process of water moving from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration?
Osmosis is the process of water moving from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration.
What is the process of water moving from an area of low concentration to an area high of high solute concentration?
Osmosis is the process of water moving from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration.
If you have a cell with water concentration of 90 percent and solute concentration of 10 percent and you place it into a solution that is 80 percent water concentration and 20 percent solute concentra?

What will influence the concentration of water and solutes in the internal environment of a cell?
the concentration of solute
What is the osmosis definition?
"Osmosis is the diffusion of a solvent (frequently water) through a semi-permeable membrane, from a solution of low solute concentration (high water potential) to a solution with high solute concentration (low water potential), up a solute concentration gradient."
What are marine animals that have body fluids with a solute concentration equal to that of the surrounding seawater?
Osmoconformers
Why are intravenous drugs added to the blood stream added in a solution that has the same solute concentration as blood plasma?
because you want them to be
Marine animals that have body fluids with a solute concentration equal to that of the surrounding seawater are said to be?
osmoconformers
What is a solution called when it has a lesser concentration of particles?
A solution with the same solute concentration as another (e.g. human body fluids) is called isotonic.
Osmosis is a type of diffusion?
Yes. Osmosis is a type of diffusion involving the movement of water through a semipermeable membrane from a solution with a low solute concentration to a solution with a high solute concentration, until the concentration of fluids on both sides of the membrane is equivalent.
What causes fluids to move or flow?
This is a multi-faceted question. In biological terms, fluids flow across selectively permeable membranes due to concentration gradients. The fluid will flow to the side witht he greater solute concentration (or osmolarity).
What is the important of diffusion in the transport of solutes cell?
The concentration on the solute goes from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration
What determines the properties a solution?
The most important property is the solute concentration.
What is the process of water from an area of low solute concentration to an high solute of high concentration?
Osmosis is the process of water moving from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration.

Osmosis is the process of water moving from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration.
What is the process water moving from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration?
Osmosis is the process of water moving from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration.
What is the process of water moving from a low solute concentration to a solute concentration?
hypertonic
