The diffusion of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane is:

Back

Osmosis

All matter is composed of very small particles called:

Molecules

Front

The movement of molecules from a place where there is a greater/higher concentration to an area where there is lesser/lower concentration is:

A solution in which the concentration of solutes is the same inside and outside of a cell is a _____________________ solution.

If a red blood cell is placed in a solution that has a concentration gradient higher than the red blood cell, this type of solution is called:

Back

Hypertonic

Front

If a red blood cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, it will eventually

When substances move in and out of cells using only their own kinetic energy, this is called:

Osmosis is a type of

Back

facilitated diffusion

Front

An example of diffusion is:

• water molecules moving into a plant cell after rain
• red food coloring moving through water until the water is pink
• water molecules leaving the cells of a freshwater fish, when placed in a saltwater tank
• none of the above
