Prelab Quix Osmosi Flashcards
(10 cards)
Osmosis is the movement of water through a ________ membrane
Semi permeable
Hypotonic has a relatively lower solute concentration while hypertonic has a relatively higher solute concentration
Turgor pressure
The pressure of water pressed up against plant cell walls
Saltwater fish cannot survive in fish water because the saltwater fish are ________ relative to the freshwater
Hyoertonic
When the water on both sides of a semi permeable membrane is at equilibrium there will be no movement of the water at all
False
Passive transport
The movement of water molecules traveling across a cell membrane does not require energy
During osmosis water moves to areas of
High solute concentration
Aquaporin
Large quantity of water can pass through the cell membrane in a channel
Osmosis
High concentration to low concentration
Hypertonic
Water will move out of the cell
