Would there be a higher concentration of dissolved molecules in pond water or in a paramecium cell?
I can guess which sheet you are looking for and it is in the link below...Don't
worry it is safe as I used it myself. The answer to this would be: 'There would be a greater concentration of dissolved molecules inside a cell.' Explanation: 'Water will move into Paramecium by osmosis because the concentration of water molecules is higher outside the Paramecium than inside.'
Once you click on the link you want to press 'show in folder' and then 'open with' Microsoft Word or adobe reader or whatever you use. Just don't click open with your browser that you are using as that will just download more copies... Hope this helped!!! :)

What else can I help you with?
Is the concentration of water molecules higher in pure water or in sugar water?
The concentration of water molecules is higher in pure water compared to sugar water. Sugar water has sugar molecules dissolved in it, which decreases the concentration of water molecules relative to pure water.
What happens to a higher concentration of dissolved molecules on one side of a cell membrane during the process of diffusion?
the side of the cell membrane with the higher molecule concentration moves molecules to areas of lower concentration during diffusion until an equilibrium is reached between both sides of the membrane.
Would osmosis have a higher concentration of water molecules distilled water or red blood cells?
Distilled water would have a higher concentration of water molecules compared to red blood cells. Red blood cells have solutes dissolved in them, so they have a lower concentration of water molecules relative to distilled water. This concentration gradient would result in osmosis moving water into the red blood cells to equalize the concentrations.
Where is the higher solvent concentration?
The higher solvent concentration is where there are more solvent molecules relative to the solute molecules. This results in a more dilute solution with a lower solute concentration.
What do molecules move along in diffusion?
Molecules move a from regions where they are in higher concentrations to regions where they are in lower concentrations. Random

The concentration of water molecules is higher in pure water compared to sugar water. Sugar water has sugar molecules dissolved in it, which decreases the concentration of water molecules relative to pure water.
What happens to a higher concentration of dissolved molecules on one side of a cell membrrane during the process of diffusion?
The higher concentration begins to diffuse into the area with lower concentration.
What happens to a higher concentration of dissolved molecules on one side of a cell membrane during the process of diffusion?
the side of the cell membrane with the higher molecule concentration moves molecules to areas of lower concentration during diffusion until an equilibrium is reached between both sides of the membrane.
Why does water generally move in the opposite direction of dissolved substances?
Diffusion is the process of a substance moving from an area of a higher concentration to a lower concentration. In this scenario the dissolved substance is the higher concentration and the water would go to an area with the lower concentration.
Would osmosis have a higher concentration of water molecules distilled water or red blood cells?
Distilled water would have a higher concentration of water molecules compared to red blood cells. Red blood cells have solutes dissolved in them, so they have a lower concentration of water molecules relative to distilled water. This concentration gradient would result in osmosis moving water into the red blood cells to equalize the concentrations.
Process from which molecules go from a lower concentration to a higher concentration?
diffusion
Where is the higher solvent concentration?
The higher solvent concentration is where there are more solvent molecules relative to the solute molecules. This results in a more dilute solution with a lower solute concentration.
What do molecules move along in diffusion?
Molecules move a from regions where they are in higher concentrations to regions where they are in lower concentrations. Random
What happens when the Paramecium gets close to the salt?
When a Paramecium gets close to salt, it will experience a process called osmosis. Salt has a higher concentration of solutes compared to the inside of the Paramecium, so water will move out of the Paramecium through osmosis to try to balance the concentration of solutes on both sides of the cell membrane. This loss of water can cause the Paramecium to shrink or even die if the salt concentration is too high.
Is osmosis the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration or movement of molecules from an area of low concentration to an area of higher concentration?
Osmosis is the movement of solvent molecules from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration through a semi-permeable membrane, in order to equalize the concentration on both sides.
How does salt affect the movement of molecules?
Salt can increase the movement of molecules in water through a process called osmosis. When salt is dissolved in water, it creates a concentration gradient that causes water molecules to move towards the area with higher salt concentration, increasing the overall movement of molecules in the solution.
How would you compare and contrast osmosis and diffusion?
Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane from a region of lower solute concentration to a region of higher solute concentration, while diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Both processes involve the movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration, but osmosis specifically refers to the movement of water molecules.
