Diffusion, Osmosis & Active Transport

AB
diffusionthe movement of molecules from high concentration to low concentration
equilibriummolecules will move in and out an equal rate
cell membranejob is to control what goes in and out of the cell
selectively permeablemeans it only allows certain materials to pass through (pores or openings)
osmosisthe diffusion of water
hypotonicsolution with more water outside the cell/water moves in-cell will swell (bigger)
isotonicwater out is the same as water in the cell /cell stays same size
hypertonicwater will move out to the cell /cell will shrivel -smaller
active transportmovement of molecules from low concentration to high using energy
