Is glucose the same as osmosis?

No, glucose is a substance, osmosis is a process. Glucose is a simple sugar and is made by photosynthesis in plant cells. Osmosis is the flow of water through a semi-permeable membrane from a region where there is a higher concentration of water to where there is a lower concentration of water. Osmosis happens in plant cells because the cell membrane is semi-permeable. The direction of water flow depends on how much glucose is dissolved in the cell sap compared to how much is in the liquid surrounding the cells. Thus glucose is involved in the process of photosynthesis.


How is osmosis used in photosynthesis?

Osmosis 'works' in photosynthesise to transport liquids (mostly water) up the plant, generally from underground, to the areas of the plant where the photosynthesis occurs, and then in moving the sap away.


Are DNA and RNA involved with osmosis?

No, DNA and RNA are not directly involved in the process of osmosis. Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane. DNA and RNA are molecules that encode genetic information and are not directly related to osmosis.

What reactants are involved in photosynthesis?

The reactants that are involved in photosynthesis are carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight. These reactants mix to form food for the plant and oxygen for animals.


How do the water and nutrients get to the leaves?

Through a process called osmosis and another one called photosynthesis.


Which chemical is involved in osmosis?

Water is the main chemical involved in osmosis. Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a semipermeable membrane from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration. This process helps maintain balance in cell hydration levels.
