What is the opposite of osmosis?
The opposite of osmosis is dialysis, which involves removing waste and excess substances from the blood by passing it through a membrane. In dialysis, solutes move from an area of high concentration to low concentration rather than water moving through a semi-permeable membrane like in osmosis.
What is a synonym for osmosis?
assimilation , diffusion , passage

Is diffusion the same thing as Osmosis?
No, diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to low concentration, while osmosis is the specific type of diffusion involving water molecules moving across a semi-permeable membrane. Osmosis specifically refers to the movement of water molecules.
5 differences between diffusion and osmosis?
The differences between diffusion and osmosis are really just that osmosis takes place with water and through a membrane. Diffusion is just the spread of molecules from high concentration to low. Osmosis is diffusion of water through a membrane.
Can osmosis and diffusion can both occur at the same time through a dialysis membrane?
Yes, osmosis and diffusion can occur simultaneously through a dialysis membrane. Osmosis involves the movement of water molecules across a semi-permeable membrane, while diffusion involves the movement of solute molecules. Both processes can occur independently of each other through a dialysis membrane when there is a concentration gradient present.

Are diffusion and osmosis passive or active transports?
Diffusion and osmosis are passive and do not require energy.
Do cells have to work to make osmosis happen?
No, osmosis is a type of diffusion. Diffusion never requires work. Osmosis occurs when water seeks equilibrium. The water will naturally try to have the same amount of solvents in it without work from the cell. You can do osmosis experiments using a dialysis bag. Put solvent (such as sugar) in the bag with some water. Then put the bag in a cup of water. Watch what happens :)

What is driven by hydrostatic fluid pressure?
Diffusion, Osmosis
What type are osmosis and diffusion?
diffusion and osmosis are types of ways to get materials into or out of a cell
Explain the differences among diffusion facilitated diffusion and osmosis?
osmosis is the movement of water across the plasma or cell membrane
What involves the movement of solutes across a selectively permeable membrane by the process of difussion?
Osmosis involves the movement of solutes across a selectively permeable membrane by the process of diffusion. In osmosis, water molecules move across the membrane from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration in order to equalize the concentration on both sides of the membrane.

How are osmosis and diffusion defferent?
by... osmosis is the diffusion of water molecule across and athe diffusion is the process by which molecules speards from area
What cellular function is missing in dead cells Osmosis Diffusion Active transport (solute pumping) or dialysis?
The cellular function that is missing in dead cells is active transport (solute pumping). Active transport requires energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient, a process that cannot occur if the cell is no longer metabolically active. Osmosis, diffusion, and dialysis can still occur in dead cells as they do not require energy expenditure by the cell.
