Osmosis definition
Diffusion of water molecules from dilute to concentrated area across a partially permeable membrane down a concentration gradient
2
New cards
hypotonic solution
solution more dilute than cell
water goes into the cell
red blood cell bursts (lysis)
plant cell goes turgid
3
New cards
hypertonic solution
solution has less water concentration than the cell
water leaves the cell
red blood cell shrivels
plant cell becomes plasmolysed
4
New cards
isotonic solution
solution has the same concentration as cell
water does not move
5
New cards
Flaccid
Plant that is wilted
6
New cards
Turgid
Plant cell that is inflated with water
7
New cards
Lysis
Bursting animal cell by osmosis
