Particles in a given medium stop moving across the membrane during diffusion when a state of equilibrium is reached, that is when the number of particles on either side of the membrane equalizes.

Involves water moving across the plasma membrane to the side with the greater solute concentration?
Osmosis
What is istotonic?
We generally use the term "tonic" when referring to the effects of osmosis across a real biological membrane. Osmosis is the movement of water across a membrane. We usually have osmosis when the concentration of solutes on each side of the membrane are different so water diffuses from the side with lower solute concentration to the side with higher concentration and this usually continues until we have equilibrium and no more water diffuses across. This environment is called an isotonic environment. ("iso" is Greek for similar or equal)
The diagram represents movement of a large molecule across a membrane?
It depends on what is moving across the membrane. Some molecules use transport proteins and the cell would need those embedded in the membrane. Water doesn't need them and it freely moves in and out.
What moves small or lipid soluble solutes through the membrane?
The unassisted diffusion of solutes through the plasma membrane is called simple diffusion. Solutes transported this way are either lipi-soluble (fats, fat-soluble vitamins, oxygen, carbon dioxide) or small enough to pass through the membrane pores (some small ions such as chloride ions, for example).
What is the movement of water and solutes through a membrane because of hydrostatic pressure called?
osmosis
What chief force pushing water and solutes out of the blood across the filtration membrane is?
True.
When will water stopping across a membrane?
When will water stop moving across a membrane when the water concentration is equal on both sides.
When will water stop moving across membranes?
When will water stop moving across a membrane when the water concentration is equal on both sides.
Is water moving across the cell membrane osmosis?
yes
Is it true that Movement of water across the plasma membrane depends on the relative concentration of solutes or dissolved substances?
Yes it is true.
When does water stop moving across the membrane?
when your body shuts down
The movement of the water across a membrane is termed?
The term used is osmosis. the direction of movement across the membrane is dependent on the concentration of solutes (known as the solute potential) which directly effects the osmotic potential.
Is a special type of diffusion that involves moving across a cell membrane?
osmosis is a special type of diffusion that involves water moving across a cell membrane hopefuly this helped :)
The chief force pushing water and solutes out of the blood across the filtration membrane is?
glomerular hydrostatic pressure (glomerular blood pressure)
What is the term used to describe water moving across a cell membrane?
osmosis
When water stop moving across a membrane?
Must be that pressure is equal on both sides...
The classes of membrane proteins that permit water and solutes to bypass the lipid portion of the cell membrane are?
There are three classes of membrane transport proteins that permit water and solutes to bypass the lipid portion of the cell membrane. They are uniporters, symporters, and antiporters.
