How does the water in the cells behave when in high or low concentrations of water?
In high solute concentrations water will flow out of the cell. In low solute concentrations water will flow into the cell.
What is the movement of materials from low to high concentrations?

What happens when there is a low water concentration outside of a cell?
If there is a low water concentration outside of a cell, water will tend to move from inside the cell to the outside through the process of osmosis. This can cause the cell to shrink or shrink (hypertonic solution) as water moves out to equalize the concentrations.
Why does active transport allow cells to accumulate substances in high concentrations where as passive means of transport do not?
Active transport uses energy from ATP to carry substances such as glucose to areas where it is required through the use of transport proteins. Whereas, facilitated diffusion is a passive process by which molecules move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration and it also depends on kinetic energy. Meaning that the distribution of molecules by facilitated diffusion will be random, whereas, active transport will have control over the direction of the concentration gradient.
How does the water in the cells behave when in high or low concentrations of water?
In high solute concentrations water will flow out of the cell. In low solute concentrations water will flow into the cell.
Is active transport from high to low concentrations considered a high-energy process?
Yes, active transport from high to low concentrations is considered a high-energy process because it requires energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient.
What is the movement of particles from high to low concentrations that does require energy?
Passive Transport.
What is the movement of particles from an area of low concentrations to an area of high concentration across a cell membrane?
Low to High would be "Active transport" if I remember Biology correctly. It requires Energy.
Which type of transport requires energy to move sodium ions from a low concentrations across the intestinal wall into a higher concentrations?
Active transport.
How do you put passive transport in a sentence?
Water diffusing from a high to low area (osmosis) is called passive transport.
Is active transport low concentration to high concentration?
Yes. Active transport requires energy; it is transport from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration. Passive transport doesn't require energy; it is transport from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
What is the movement of materials from low to high concentrations?
diffusion
How do cells balance concentrations?
Cells balance concentrations by using various mechanisms such as passive diffusion, active transport, and osmosis. Passive diffusion allows molecules to move across the cell membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Active transport requires energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient. Osmosis involves the movement of water across the cell membrane to equalize solute concentrations inside and outside the cell.
What type of passive transport involves water molecules moving from high to a low concentration?
osmosis
Which passive transport water molecules moving from a high concentration to a low concentration?

Does passive transport move from high concentration to low concentration?
Passive transport moves molecules from a high to low concentration gradient.
