2. Osmosis Notes (page 10)
• Diffusion = movement of particles from an
area of high concentration to an area of low
concentration
3. Osmosis Notes (page 10)
• Diffusion = movement of particles from an
area of high concentration to an area of low
concentration
• Osmosis = The diffusion of water
8. Types of solutions
• Isotonic: [Solutes] in solution = [Solutes] in cell
• Hypotonic: [Solutes] in solution < [Solutes] in cell
Water flows IN to cell
9. Types of solutions
• Isotonic: [Solutes] in solution = [Solutes] in cell
• Hypotonic: [Solutes] in solution < [Solutes] in cell
Water flows IN to cell
• Hypertonic: [Solutes] in solution > [Solutes] in cell
Water flows OUT of cell
10. Output (page 11)
• Draw the following diagram and then answer the
questions
Solution
10% solute
90 % water
W
Cell
2% solute
98% water
• Is the solution iso, hypo, or hypertonic?
• Draw an arrow showing the direction the water will
flow
• Will the cell shrink, swell, or stay the same size?
