Tissue fluid
________ surrounds the cells in the body- its just water with oxygen, glucose and other things dissolved in it.
2
New cards
thistle funnel
Water should be drawn through the visking tubing by osmosis and this will force the solution up the glass tube (the ________ has an open bottom where the visking tubing goes)
3
New cards
Happens
________ in both liquids and gases- the particles there are free to move about randomly.
4
New cards
Diffusion
________ is the gradual movement of particles from places where there are lots to where there are fewer.
5
New cards
Substances
________ can move in and out of cells via diffusion, active transport, and osmosis.
6
New cards
Water molecules
________ pass both ways through the membrane during osmosis.
7
New cards
Active transport
________ allows nutrients to be taken into the blood, despite the fact that the concentration gradient is the wrong way.
8
New cards
Definition
________: ‘ Active Transport is the movement of particles against a concentration (i.e: from a lower concentration to a higher concentration) using energy released during respiration.
9
New cards
Technical Definition
________: the ‘ net movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
10
New cards
Technical definition
________: ‘ Osmosis is the net movement of water molecules across a partially permeable membrane from a high concentration of water to a low concentration of water.
