What is the overall goal of diffusion osmosis and facilitated diffusion?

The overall goal of diffusion, osmosis, and facilitated diffusion is to achieve equilibrium by moving substances across cell membranes. Diffusion involves the passive movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to lower concentration. Osmosis specifically refers to the movement of water across a semi-permeable membrane to balance solute concentrations. Facilitated diffusion uses specific transport proteins to help molecules that cannot easily cross the membrane to move down their concentration gradient.


What is driven by hydrostatic fluid pressure?

Diffusion, Osmosis


What life function is directly related to diffusion and osmosis?

Digestions is a life function that is directly related to diffusion and osmosis. The nutrients digested are absorbed and distributed via diffusion and osmosis.


How do diffusion and osmosis differ from one another?

Diffusion and osmosis differ because diffusion is the process by which molecules spread out, or move from areas with high concentration to low concentration, and osmosis is the diffusion of water. Osmosis is a type of diffusion relating to water. It is usually used to describe the diffusion of water across a membrane (such as the cell membrane). Osmosis is also defined as the flow of solvent from a region of higher pressure toward a region of low pressure.


What are facts or questions on osmosis?
