58. Summary Section 2 – pages 152-156 Water resists changes in temperature. Therefore, water requires more heat to increase its temperature than do most other common liquids. Water can move UP because of capillary action. Unique properties of water

59. Summary Section 2 – pages 152-156 Unique properties of water Water is one of the few substances that expands when it freezes. Ice is less dense than liquid water so it floats as it forms in a body of water.

60. Summary Section 2 – pages 152-156 Early observations: Brownian motion In 1827, Scottish scientist Robert Brown used a microscope to observe pollen grains suspended in water. He noticed that the grains moved constantly in little jerks, as if being struck by invisible objects. This motion is now called Brownian motion. Today we know that Brown was observing evidence of the random motion of atoms and molecules.

61. Summary Section 2 – pages 152-156 The process of diffusion Diffusion : the net movement of particles from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Diffusion results because of the random movement of particles (Brownian motion). Three key factors—concentration, temperature, and pressure—affect the rate of diffusion.

62. Summary Section 2 – pages 152-156 The results of diffusion When a cell is in dynamic equilibrium with its environment, materials move into and out of the cell at equal rates. As a result, there is no net change in concentration inside or outside the cell. Material moving out of cell equals material moving into cell

63. Summary Section 2 – pages 152-156 Diffusion in living systems The difference in concentration of a substance across space is called a concentration gradient. Ions and molecules diffuse from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration, moving with the gradient. Dynamic equilibrium occurs when there is no longer a concentration gradient.

64. Summary Section 2 – pages 152-156 Diffusion in living systems Diffusion continues until there is no longer a concentration gradient and dynamic equilibrium has been reached.

65. Section 2 Check 1. Explain why water is important to living organisms. 2. Define diffusion in your own words 3. Explain what dynamic equilibrium means

66. Answers 1.Living organisms must have water for life processes, because critical molecules and ions must be free to move and collide, which only happens when they are dissolved in water. Water also transports materials in living organisms, such as in blood or sap. 2.Diffusion is the movement of particles from high concentration to low concentration 3.Dynamic equilibrium happens when an equilibrium of particles exist between the gradient
