Water moves into the cell by osmosis along the concentration gradient until the two gradients are equal.
The result is that the volume inside the cell increases, causing the cell to swell.
The chloride concentration is higher outside the cell than inside the cell.
The inside of cells have a higher concentration of potassium ions compared to the outside of the cell. This concentration gradient is maintained through the action of ion channels and pumps in the cell membrane.
The concentration of material is greater on the outside of the cell than the inside in a hypertonic solution. In this solution, there is a higher concentration of solutes outside the cell compared to inside, causing water to move out of the cell, leading to cell shrinkage.
When the concentration of the glucose in the water outside the cell is higher than the concentration inside, the water will then have a tendency to leave the cell. The process of the water leaving the cell will be by osmosis.
If there is the concentration of substance inside the cell is lesser than outside and cell membrane is permeable to the substance.
If the concentration of glucose is higher outside the cell than inside, glucose will diffuse into the cell down its concentration gradient. This process occurs through passive transport, where molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. The diffusion will continue until equilibrium is reached, or until the concentration inside the cell matches that outside.
The chloride concentration is higher outside the cell than inside the cell.
The inside of cells have a higher concentration of potassium ions compared to the outside of the cell. This concentration gradient is maintained through the action of ion channels and pumps in the cell membrane.
The Na concentration is higher outside of the neuron's plasma membrane, while the K concentration is higher inside the neuron's plasma membrane. This creates an electrochemical gradient that allows for the generation and transmission of electrical signals in neurons.
If the concentration of glucose is higher inside the cell than outside, glucose will diffuse out of the cell to achieve equilibrium. This process occurs through passive transport, where molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. As a result, the concentration of glucose inside the cell will decrease while it increases outside until equilibrium is reached.
If the concentration of water inside a cell is higher than outside, water will move out of the cell through osmosis, leading to cell shrinkage or crenation. This occurs because water moves from an area of higher concentration (inside the cell) to an area of lower concentration (outside) to achieve equilibrium. If the imbalance is significant, it can adversely affect cell function and viability.
If substance A can diffuse across the membrane, it will move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration until equilibrium is reached. This means that the concentration of A inside the cell will increase while the concentration outside the cell will decrease, assuming that the initial concentration outside the cell is higher than inside. Eventually, the concentrations inside and outside the cell will become equal if no other factors interfere.
The sugar particle will diffuse from an area of higher concentration (inside the tubing) to an area of lower concentration (outside the tubing) until equilibrium is reached. Water molecules will also move into the tubing to balance the concentration gradient as the sugar particles diffuse out.
When the concentration is higher on the outside of the cell, it creates a concentration gradient that drives passive transport processes like diffusion and osmosis. This gradient allows molecules or ions to move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration, resulting in the equalization of concentrations inside and outside the cell.
The concentration of material is greater on the outside of the cell than the inside in a hypertonic solution. In this solution, there is a higher concentration of solutes outside the cell compared to inside, causing water to move out of the cell, leading to cell shrinkage.
Substances will move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration in order to achieve equilibrium. Inside the cell, substances will diffuse out if the concentration outside is higher, and substances will diffuse in if the concentration outside is lower, until equilibrium is reached.
When the concentration of the glucose in the water outside the cell is higher than the concentration inside, the water will then have a tendency to leave the cell. The process of the water leaving the cell will be by osmosis.
