GCSE Biology - Osmosis #8

The video tutorial explains osmosis, a special case of diffusion involving water molecules moving across a partially permeable membrane from higher to lower water concentration. It clarifies the concept of water concentration, comparing it to solute concentration, and demonstrates this with beaker examples. Finally, it applies these concepts to cellular environments, showing how water moves into cells due to concentration differences.

What is the relationship between diffusion and osmosis?

What is the definition of osmosis?

Describe how water concentration is determined in a solution.

How does the concentration of solutes affect the concentration of water in a solution?

Explain the process of osmosis in relation to a cell's environment.
