Q

What is active transport?

A

Up a concentration gradient: requires energy

21
Q

A

Down a concentration gradient: doesn’t not require energy

22
Q

What is osmosis?

A

Diffusion of water down a concentration gradient

23
Q

What is reverse osmosis?

A

Water is forced against it’s concentration gradient

24
What is equilibrium?
When both sides of osmosis are filtered through exchange
25
What is tonicity?
Absolute of a solution to effect fluid volume and pressure in a cell
26
What is a hypotonic solution?
Has a lower concentration of no permeating solutes
27
What's a hypertonic solution?
Has a higher concentration of non-permeating solutes than intracellular fluid
28
What is an isotonic solution?
Equal concentration
29
