Cells and Diffusion Today’s Learning Objectives: Name the method by which substances move in  and out of cells Define diffusion State when diffusion will stop From diagrams, predict the direction of  movement of substances by diffusion State which substances enter and leave living  cells by diffusion Give one reason why diffusion is important to  whole organisms
Substances have to pass into and out of cells These movements most commonly occur by diffusion Diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of  HIGH  concentration to an area of  LOW  concentration until they are  EVENLY  spread

Food molecules Oxygen molecules Carbon dioxide  molecules Diffusion in or out of a living cell
Cells and Osmosis Today’s Learning Objectives: Name the method by which water passes in  and out of cells Explain what a selectively permeable membrane is State what osmosis is using the terms  selectively permeable membrane and concentration  gradient Identify water concentration gradients when  given solute concentrations Predict the direction of water movement between  two solutions of know concentration Describe and predict a visking tubing experiment
OSMOSIS  is the special diffusion of  WATER  from a  HIGH WATER  concentration to a  LOW WATER  concentration through a  SELECTIVELY PERMEABLE MEMBRANE A membrane which is  selectively permeable  allows certain molecules to pass through but not others.
Membrane fully permeable to small molecules e.g. water Membrane slowly permeable to larger molecules e.g. sugar Membrane is not permeable to huge molecules e.g. starch Selectively permeable membrane Nucleus Cytoplasm
Concentration Gradient 99% water 1% sugar 95% water 5% sugar Higher concentration of water Lower concentration of water
Lower concentration of water Higher concentration of water Water moves down a concentration gradient by  OSMOSIS  from  high to low  concentration Water molecule Sugar molecule Selectively permeable membrane

Water Concentrations A  dilute  sugar solution has a  high water  concentration A  concentrated  solutions has a  low water  concentration Water moves in or out of a cell depending on whether the water concentration outside the cell is higher or lower than the water concentration inside the cell
Water will move into the cell Water will move out of the cell Water concentration is equal inside and outside the cell. Solution outside is  hypotonic Solution outside is  Hypertonic Solution outside is  isotonic
Hypotonic, Hypertonic, Isotonic Hypotonic . Has a higher water concentration and a low solute concentration….. Hypertonic  Has  a lower water concentration and a high solute concentration….. Isotonic  Has a water concentration and solute concentration the same…… as the solution in contact
