Question
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. a solution that causes a cell to swell because of osmosis. 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. passive transport active transport hypertonic hypotonic isotonic
- When solute - solvent concentrations are equal on both sides of the membrane, it's an isotonic condition.
- A solution with high solute concentration outside the cell causing cell shrinkage is hypertonic.
- A solution causing cell swelling due to osmosis is hypotonic.
- The energy - requiring movement of particles against the concentration gradient is active transport.
- The non - energy requiring movement of materials with the concentration gradient is passive transport.
