Diffusion Osmosis SG

1. The document is a chapter review on diffusion and osmosis that contains questions to test the reader's understanding. It asks the reader to label cell membrane diagrams as isotonic, hypertonic, or hypotonic based on the solution the cell is placed in. 2. It defines key terms like passive transport, concentration gradient, diffusion, and osmosis. Diffusion is the simplest form of passive transport where substances move from high to low concentration without energy. Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane. 3. The review covers the cell membrane structure, how cells are affected by isotonic, hypertonic and hypotonic solutions, and different types of transport like facilitated

Chapter Review: Diffusion and Osmosis

Name _________________________________

What do you know?


1. Label the three images below as isotonic/ hypertonic/ hypotonic (with regard to the solution the cell is
placed in)

2. Movement across the cell membrane that does not require energy is called_______________ transport.
3. The difference in the concentration of a substance across a space is called a concentration
__________________________.
4. If there is a concentration gradient, substances will move from an area of high concentration to an area of
__________________ concentration.
5. The cell membrane is __________________________ permeable.
6. ________________________ is the simplest type of passive transport.
7. The diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane is called
___________________________.
8. The direction of water movement across the cell membrane depends on the concentration of free water
_________________________.
9. A solution that causes a cell to swell is called a ___________________ solution. The solution will have a
____________________ concentration of solute molecules than the cell.
10. Organelles that collect excess water inside the cell and force water out are called
_____________________________ vacuoles.
11. Taking material into the cell by infolding of the cell membrane is a form of __________________
transport, which requires an input of cellular energy called _____________________________.
12. In ______________________ diffusion, membrane proteins help molecules across the membrane.

13. In diffusion, molecules spread out from areas of _____________ concentration to areas of
_______________ concentration.
14. Scientists use the ___________________ ___________________ model of the cell membrane,
depicting it as made of components that can move around and are more liquid than solid.
15. Facilitated diffusion moves substances down their concentration gradient using membrane proteins.
This process __________________ energy input by the cell.
