OSMOSIS OSMOSIS: The diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane SELECTIVELY PERMEABLE: some substances pass like water and others do not
3
OSMOSIS 3 TYPES OF SOLUTIONS: ISOTONIC: Solutions on each side of semi- permeable membrane are equal or same strength H 2 O in → Animal Cell H 2 O out →
4
OSMOSIS HYPERTONIC: Above strength with cells the solution has higher solute concentration than the cell Animal Cell H 2 O out →
5
OSMOSIS HYPOTONIC: Below strength With cells the solution has a lower solute concentration than the cell H 2 O in → Animal Cell
6
OSMOSIS OSMOTIC PRESSURE: Force exerted on hypertonic side of semi-permeable membrane
