Biology (osmosis, active transport, diffusion)

DEFINITONS:

Osmosis- movement of water particles, across a semi permeable membrane, from an area of LOWER solute concentration (hypotonic) to an area of HIGHER solute concentration (hypertonic)

Hypertonic- HIGHER concentration solute side of the membrane

Hypotonic- LOWER concentration solute side of the membrane

Active Transport- moves particles AGAINST the concentration…
