Question
water makes up a large percentage of the bodys cells. for a cell to remain in homeostasis, there must be a mechanism to control water changes in the cells. the movement of water from an area of high water concentration to an area of low water concentration is
diffusion
osmosis
active transport
stable transport
Osmosis is the movement of water from an area of high water - concentration to an area of low water - concentration across a semi - permeable membrane. Diffusion is a more general process for the movement of substances from high to low concentration. Active transport requires energy and moves substances against the concentration gradient. Stable transport is not a recognized term in this context.
