Well, considering osmosis is a very specific process for desalinating water, there are an infinite number of things that are not occuring during this process. For example, the big bang could not be occuring during osmosis because otherwise it would blow the entire universe apart, which clearly does no happen. One other example of something that does not occur during osmosis, is the combustion of water. In fact, it is nearly impossible for this to occur under any circumstances let alone during osmosis.

Why do you need to remove the skin of a potato during osmosis?

Removing the skin of a potato during osmosis allows the movement of water and solutes to occur more easily. The skin acts as a barrier that can impede the flow of water and nutrients in and out of the potato cells. By removing the skin, osmosis can happen more efficiently.


Does osmosis occur in a salted egg?

Yes, osmosis can occur in a salted egg. The high salt concentration in the brine will cause water to move out of the egg through osmosis, which helps preserve the egg and enhances its flavor.


When osmosis do not occur?

Osmosis does not occur when the concentration of solute is the same on both sides of the membrane, creating an isotonic environment where there is no net movement of water molecules. Additionally, osmosis may not occur if the membrane is impermeable to water molecules, preventing their movement across the membrane.


Does osmosis occur in dead cells?

if the membrane is intact and there is a change of concentration of solut or solvent, osmosis should happen.


What is it called when osmosis can only occur if water travels?

This is called 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. It does not require the presence of other molecules for it to occur.


Where does osmosis occur in the digestive system?

Osmosis occurs in the small intestine during the process of nutrient absorption. Water moves through the semi-permeable membrane of the intestinal cells to maintain osmotic balance, allowing nutrients to be absorbed into the bloodstream.


Does osmosis occur in an isotonic solution?

In an isotonic solution, there is no net movement of water across the cell membrane, as the concentration of solutes inside and outside the cell is equal. Therefore, osmosis does not occur in an isotonic solution.


Will osmosis occur if the electrolytes are the same?

Yes, osmosis can still occur if the electrolytes are the same. Osmosis is the movement of water across a semipermeable membrane from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration. The presence of electrolytes does not prevent this process from taking place.


Gas exchanges occur mainly by osmosis?

No, only water molecules move by osmosis. Gases are normally exchanged by the process of diffusion.
