What else can I help you with?
When the concentration of free water molecules is higher outside a cell than inside the cell water will diffuse?
into the cell to create equilibrium. This process is known as osmosis. The direction of water movement is determined by the concentration gradient of water molecules between the inside and outside of the cell.
What would happen if the concentration of molecules outside the cell was lower than the inside?
the carbon dioxide will move into the cell due to the concentration of carbon dioxide outside of the cell being higher
In general the net movement of small uncharged atoms and molecules through the membrane of a cell will occur until?
Molecules will move into or out of the cell until it becomes isotonic to its surroundings. This means that the concentration of the molecules inside the cell is equal to the concentration of the molecules outside the cell.
When the concentration is higher on the outside of the cell it is?
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.
What happens to a sugar particle inside a visking tubing and water particles outside?
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.
What role did diffusion play in the changes you observed?
Before diffusion there is a higher concentration of oxygen molecules outside the cell than inside the cell. After diffusion the concentration of oxygen molecules is the same outside and inside the cell.
Do molecules must always diffuse into a cell?
not if the concentration is equal inside and outside of the cell
When the concentration of free water molecules is higher outside a cell than inside the cell water will diffuse?
into the cell to create equilibrium. This process is known as osmosis. The direction of water movement is determined by the concentration gradient of water molecules between the inside and outside of the cell.
As the concentration of molecules outside a cell increases more molecules will enter the cell?
Yes, this process is known as osmosis. Water moves from an area of low solute concentration (outside the cell) to an area of high solute concentration (inside the cell) to balance the concentration levels. This causes more molecules to enter the cell as the concentration difference increases.
What would happen if the concentration of molecules outside the cell was lower than the inside?
the carbon dioxide will move into the cell due to the concentration of carbon dioxide outside of the cell being higher
If the concentration of glucose is higher inside the cell than the cell then outside the cell then what will happen by the process of diffusion?
Water will move out of the cell. Glucose will not move into the cell without the help of a helper molecule. Glucose molecules will diffuse into the cell.(APEX)
In general the net movement of small uncharged atoms and molecules through the membrane of a cell will occur until?
Molecules will move into or out of the cell until it becomes isotonic to its surroundings. This means that the concentration of the molecules inside the cell is equal to the concentration of the molecules outside the cell.
Glucose is a molecule that can move across the cell membrane if the concentration of glucose is high or inside the cell than outside the cell then what will happen by the process of diffusion?
glucose molecules will diffuse out of the cell. apex
What would happen if you had a cell in the water and molecules were in the cell and some were out the cell what would most likely happen after a period of time?
If the concentration of molecules is higher inside the cell compared to outside, water would move into the cell to dilute the higher concentration of molecules. This may cause the cell to swell or burst. If the concentration of molecules is higher outside the cell, water would move out of the cell causing it to shrink or shrivel. The movement of water is driven by osmosis, which aims to equalize the concentration of molecules inside and outside the cell.
When the concentration is higher on the outside of the cell it is?
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.
What is the difference in chloride concentration inside and outside the cell?
The chloride concentration is higher outside the cell than inside the cell.
When is a substance most likely to diffuse into a cell?
If there is the concentration of substance inside the cell is lesser than outside and cell membrane is permeable to the substance.
