when the concentration of solute and solvent are equal on both sides of the membrane.
a solution that causes a cell to shrink because of the high concentration of solute in the solution surrounding the cell.

process requiring energy for the movement of particles across a cell membrane against the concentration gradient.
a non - energy requiring process that moves materials across a cell membrane with the concentration gradient.
the process where molecules tend to move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
the movement of water through a semipermeable membrane from an area of high concentration to low concentration.
the substance that is being dissolved by a solvent.
the substance that dissolves the solute.

diffusion # solvent # passive transport # osmosis # active transport # solute # isotonic # hypotonic # hypertonic

Explanation:

1. When the concentration of solute and solvent are equal on both sides of the membrane - Isotonic. In an isotonic solution, there is no net movement of water across the membrane as the solute - solvent concentration is the same on both sides.
2. A solution that causes a cell to shrink because of the high concentration of solute in the solution surrounding the cell - Hypertonic. In a hypertonic solution, water moves out of the cell, causing it to shrink.
3. A solution that causes a cell to swell because of osmosis - Hypotonic. In a hypotonic solution, water moves into the cell, causing it to swell.
4. Process requiring energy for the movement of particles across a cell membrane against the concentration gradient - Active transport. Active transport uses energy (usually ATP) to move substances against their concentration gradient.
5. A non - energy requiring process that moves materials across a cell membrane with the concentration gradient - Passive transport. Passive transport, such as diffusion and facilitated diffusion, does not require energy and moves substances down their concentration gradient.
6. The process when molecules tend to move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration - Diffusion. Diffusion is the movement of molecules from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration.
7. The movement of water through a semipermeable membrane from an area of high concentration to low concentration - Osmosis. Osmosis is specifically the diffusion of water across a semi - permeable membrane.
8. The substance that is being dissolved by a solvent - Solute. A solute is the substance that gets dissolved in a solvent to form a solution.
9. The substance that dissolves the solute - Solvent. A solvent is the substance in which the solute dissolves.
