Osmosis

Osmosis is the diffusion of _____ across a selectively permeable membrane.

• food
• air
• water
• oxygen

During diffusion

• substances (things) moves from high to low concentration
• water moves when energy is used
• large or oddly shaped molecules move across a cell membrane
• water moves from high to low concentration

 An animal cell placed in a hypertonic (salty) solution will

• Stay the same
• Shrink- get smaller
• Swell- get bigger

When both inside and outside of a cell have the same amount of water it is said that the cell has reached a state of ___________.

• osmosis
• equilibrium
• diffusion
• hypertonic

 If a cell containing 5% salt is placed into a glass of water with 20% salt, the water is _______ compared to the cell.

• hypertonic-
• hypotonic
• isotonic

 If the volume of a cell increases when it is placed in a solution, that solution is said to be __________ to the cell

•  hypertonic
• subatomic
•  isotonic
•  hypotonic 

Which way will the water molecules move during osmosis?

• Out of the cell, so the cell shrinks.
• Out of the cell, so the cell swells.
• Into the cell, so the cell shrinks.
• Into the cell, so the cell swells.

The movement of molecules against a concentration gradient

• simple diffusion
• facilitated diffusion
• active transport
• osmosis

_______ regulates what enters and leaves a cell.  

• Cell Membrane
• Nucleus
• Mitochondria
• Cytoplasm
