Osmosis is a special case of
diffusion
View source
Osmosis is the net movement of water molecules across a fully permeable membrane
False
View source
A solution with more solute particles has a higher water concentration
False
View source
What is the definition of osmosis?
Diffusion of water molecules
View source
Water concentration refers to the amount of water compared to
solutes
View source
The
proportion
of water compared to solutes determines water concentration
View source
Water moves from an area of lower water concentration to higher water concentration during osmosis
False
View source
Which beaker has a higher water concentration if one has one solute particle and the other has three?
Beaker with one solute
View source
What type of membrane is required for osmosis?
Partially permeable
View source
Water particles move from the
outside
of the cell to the inside when there is a water concentration gradient
