Movements of molecules:lab assessment

• What is osmosis?

  movement of water molecules from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration across a semi-permeable membrane
• What is hypertonic?

  A solution with a higher concentration of solutes compared to another solution. (a solution with more dissolved stuff compared to another)
• What is hypotonic?

  A solution with a lower solute concentration than another solution (a solution with less stuff dissolved inside it compared to another)
• What is crenation?

  the process where cells shrink due to water loss
