Diffusion Molecules – Building blocks of matter. Diffusion: The movement of molecules from an area of high to an area of low concentration. •Ex: Perfume Diffusing through a room. •Ex: Dye diffusing through water
What speeds up the rate of diffusion? Add heat Heat Energy- Causes molecules to vibrate
What is a cell membrane? A thin envelope that surrounds a cell Lets things in & out. A membrane can be: Impermeable --- Substances cannot pass thru Permeable --- Substances can freely pass thru Semi-Permeable ---- Allows some substances
Osmosis Osmosis: The diffusion of water across a semi-permeable membrane. /0+"12334526+765&6525"&68',48'5"*89*:5"&6;'"<69*)1"<='"869",6+,'+<)*<26+> * In diffusions/osmosis, molecules always move toward a low concentration
Osmosis What is the concentration of the water compared to that of the cell? A. Equal Concentrations B. Water is Low Concentration C. Water is High Concentration A B C
