Osmosis and DiffusionPassive Transport
Osmosis and Diffusion
• Terms and definitions
Osmosis and Diffusion• 1.Diffusion - the process by which molecules spread from areas of high concentration, to areas of
low concentration
Osmosis and Diffusion
• 1.Diffusion – eventually spreading out evenly into the
available space
Osmosis and Diffusion
• Several factors can affect the rate the diffusion……
• One such factor is temperature • Higher temperatures tend to
increase the rate of diffusion
Osmosis and Diffusion• 2.Solutes- a substance dissolved in fluid
Ex: Salt is a solute, when it is concentrated inside or outside the cell, it will draw the water in its direction
This is also why you get thirsty after eating something salty
Osmosis and Diffusion
• 3.Solvent - is a liquid, solid, or gas that dissolves another solid, liquid, or gaseous solute
– resulting in a solution
Osmosis and Diffusion
4.OsmosisA specialized type of diffusion
is the movement of a solvent (frequently water) through a semi-permeable membrane
Osmosis is a type of a process where a fluid passes through a semipermeable membrane and moves from an area where a solute is present in low concentrations to an area where a solute is present in a higher concentration

Osmosis is a type of a process where a fluid passes through a semi-permeable membrane, from a higher concentration of water
to a lower concentration of water
Osmosis and Diffusion
• 5.Tonicity is a measure of the osmotic pressure gradient when comparing the concentration of solutes in different solutions & the following terms are used:
Osmosis and Diffusion
• Hypotonic Solutions: • contain a low concentration of
solute (more water)
• When a cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, the water
diffuses into the cell, causing the cell to swell
• Hint : po boy sandwich
Osmosis and Diffusion
• Hypertonic Solutions: • contain a high concentration of
solute (less water)
• When a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, the water
diffuses out of the cell, causing the cell to shrivel
• Hint: Hyper kids
Osmosis and Diffusion
• Isotonic Solutions: contain the same concentration of solute
( equal amounts of water)
• When a cell is placed in an isotonic solution, the water diffuses into and
out of the cell at the same rate
• The fluid that surrounds the body cells is isotonic
Osmosis and Diffusion
• In the real world……….– In humans, osmosis occurs in the kidneys to recover the water form waste
materials of the body. The kidneys regulate the concentration of water in the blood plasma.
– Kidney dialysis
Osmosis and Diffusion
• In the real worldIn plants, osmosis occurs for
example at root hairs, allowing the uptake of water from the soil.
For today• 6.1 - DEMO
The effects of size and temp on diffusion
– Agar that is in its gel state is porous, thus making it easier for solutions to spread.

For Today
• 6.5Osmosis with plant cells (cell walls)
Plasmolysis - cytoplasm pulls away fromthe cell wall due to the loss of water
through osmosis
Hypertonic Hypotonic
