Term
Diffusion
Definition
going from high to low, requires no energy
Term
Diffusion Through a Gas
Definition
large spaces between molecules, fast moving molecules, fast rate of diffusion
Term
Diffusion Through a Liquid
Definition
medium spaces between molecules, medium speed of molecules, medium rate of diffusion
Term
Diffusion Through a Solid
Definition
small spaces between molecules, slow speed of molecules, slow rate of diffusion
Term
Which is the fastest rate of diffusion, a gas, liquid, or solid?
Definition
gas
Term
Which is the slowest rate of diffusion, a gas, liquid, or solid?
Definition
solid
Term
Osmosis
Definition
movement of WATER molecules from high concentrations to lower concentrations
Term
Solution
Definition
a solute plus a solvent
Term
Solvent
Definition
what is doing the dissolving (usually water)
Term
Solute
Definition
what is being dissolved (such as NaCl)
Term
The three types of solutions?
Definition
hypertonic, hypotonic, isotonic
Term
Hypertonic Solution
Definition
higher concentration of solute, less water
Term
Hypotonic Solution
Definition
lower concentration of solute, more water
Term
Isotonic Solution
Definition
equal amounts of solute and solvent
Term
Given a 5% glucose solution, what is the SOLVENT and which is the SOLUTE?
Definition
solvent - water (95%)
solute - glucose (5%)
Term
Given a 4% NaCl solution, what is the SOLVENT and what is the SOLUTE?
Definition
solvent - water (96%)
solute - NaCl (4%)
Term
If there is a 4% NaCl solution and a 7% NaCl solution, which is hypotonic and which is hyper tonic? Which way would the movement of water move?
Definition
hypotonic - 4% NaCl (96% water)
hypertonic - 7% NaCl (93% water)
toward the 7% NaCl
Term
By osmosis, water will always move from the ... solution to the ... solution.
Definition
higher (hypotonic), lower (hypertonic)
Term
Hemolysis
Definition
bursting of RBC from too much water
Term
Crenation
Definition
shriveling up RBC from too much water leaving the cell
