The cell membrane plays a crucial role in regulating diffusion and osmosis. It allows only certain molecules to pass through, which maintains the balance of solutes inside and outside the cell. Diffusion and osmosis are passive processes that rely on the cell membrane's selective permeability to control the movement of substances in and out of the cell.
diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and osmosis
The diffusion of water through the cell membrane is called osmosis. Osmosis occurs when water molecules move across a semi-permeable membrane from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration in order to equalize the concentration on both sides of the membrane.
The cell membrane, also known as the plasma membrane, is the organelle involved in osmosis and diffusion. It acts as a barrier that regulates the flow of molecules in and out of the cell, allowing for the passive movement of substances such as water and solutes through the process of osmosis and diffusion.
The diffusion of water through a cell membrane is known as osmosis. In osmosis, water molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration to balance the concentration of solutes on both sides of the membrane.
Osmosis and diffusion take place across the plasma membrane, the outer "wall" of the cell. It is considered to be an organelle because it carries out a variety of functions. The cell membrane or plasma membrane is made up of a double layes of phosphorous and lipid molecules, known as the 'phospholipid bilayer'.
