Is osmosis a type of transport involving elements such as calcium?
Osmosis is a type of passive transport that involves elements such as calcium. The elements are moved from high concentration to low concentration.
What part of the body does the red blood cells travel?
Red blood cells are part of the blood and travel where the blood goes. Blood is moved through the heart to the lungs and back to the heart. Then it is moved through arteries to all the tissues of the body and back to the heart through the veins.
Can red blood cells turn into white blood cells?
While red blood cells seem to only be moved by the flow of blood, white blood cells have actually been found to have active modes of transportation, along with mitochondria to possibly facilitate this movement. You can search for a study that discuses the findings that white blood cells actually can move like millipedes along the lining of of the blood vessel. Search for "White Blood Cells Can Sprout 'Legs' And Move Like Millipedes" on the ScienceDaily website.
Is the movement of ions from an area of greater concentration to one of lesser concentration an example of osmosis?
The movement of ions/molecules from an area of greater concentration to an area of lesser concentration is called diffusion.Osmosis is a type of diffusion, which refers specifically to the movement of the solvent (usually water).
What is true when two containers have different solute concentrations after osmosis occurs between the two containers?
When two containers have different solute concentrations after osmosis, it means that water molecules have moved across the semi-permeable membrane from a region of lower solute concentration to a region of higher solute concentration. This results in the dilution of the more concentrated solution and the concentration of the less concentrated solution.
How are Excess calcium and potassium are moved between interstitial fluids and blood?
Excess calcium is moved between interstitial fluids and blood via active transport by calcium pumps in cell membranes. Excess potassium is moved through the Na+/K+ pump that actively transports potassium ions out of cells and into the blood in exchange for sodium ions.
What you call the process by which oxygen is moved into and carbon dioxide is moved into a cell?
osmosis i believe
What substance cannot be moved into a cell by osmosis or diffusion?
Large molecules such as proteins cannot be moved into a cell by osmosis or diffusion due to their size and charge. These molecules require specialized transport mechanisms such as active transport to enter the cell.
Is osmosis a type of transport involving elements such as calcium?
Osmosis is a type of passive transport that involves elements such as calcium. The elements are moved from high concentration to low concentration.
How urine is removed from the blood and then eliminated from the body?
Urine is formed in the kidneys, specifically by the renal tubules in the nephrons of the kidneys. It then is collected by the renal pelvis, where it exits though the ureters, moves to the bladder where it is stored until urination, during which it is expelled through the urethra.
What is the correct sequence of arteries that a drop of blood would flow through as it entered the kidney and moved toward a glomerulus?
Renal artery - segmental artery - interlobar artery - arcuate artery - interlobular artery
After leaving the kidney where does the filtrate go?
Urine flows from kidney to the urinary bladder through ureters. Urinary bladder collects and from urinary bladder it goes outside the body through urethra
How do you use osmiosis in a sentence?
Osmosis is a process by which molecules pass through a semipermeable membrane from a less concentrated solution to a more concentrated one. An example sentence using osmosis could be: "During osmosis, water molecules moved from the beaker with a lower salt concentration to the one with a higher salt concentration."
What process is going on when cells in a plant root drink in water through the cell membrane?
Osmosis (endo-osmosis to take water inside plant cell)
How are hormones moved?
In animals,they are moved by blood mainly.In plants they are moved by xylem,pholem etc
When the vinegar absorbed into the egg and caused it to expand This was an example of?
osmosis, where the vinegar solution moved from an area of higher concentration (outside the egg) to an area of lower concentration (inside the egg). This caused the egg to absorb the vinegar and swell, demonstrating the process of osmosis.
What is the name of the process in which waters moved into or out of the cell membrane to maintain homeostasis?
Osmosis. In this process water is moved in or out of the cell to reach an isotonic concentration. Meaning that both sides of the cell membrane will be of equal strength.
