Question

when studying with a friend for a test, what key points about osmosis would you make sure you tell them? check all that apply. check all that apply osmosis refers to the movement of water along a concentration gradient in osmosis, water moves to equalize solute concentrations on either side of the membrane if osmosis occurs across a membrane, then diffusion is not occurring the movement of water across a membrane can affect the turgor pressure of some cells

Explanation:

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. It aims to equalize solute concentrations on both sides. In plant cells, water movement via osmosis affects turgor pressure. Diffusion and osmosis can occur simultaneously across a membrane.

Answer:

• Osmosis refers to the movement of water along a concentration gradient
• In osmosis, water moves to equalize solute concentrations on either side of the membrane
• The movement of water across a membrane can affect the turgor pressure of some cells
