OSMOSIS - Coggle Diagram
OSMOSIS
hypotonic solution
low solute concentration
high solution concentration
pure water is an example
hypertonic solution
high solute concentration
low solution concentration
saline (saltwater)
isotonic solution
has the same solute concentration as another solution
no movement of fluids
no osmosis
cleaning solution for contact lenses
plants and animals achieve homeostasis
filtration in kidneys
absorption of water from soil
osmotic pressure
the pressure needed to be applied to the solution to stop fluid movement
more solution moving = higher osmotic pressure
glucose solution has minimum osmotic pressure
MgCl2 has maximum osmotic pressure
movement of a solvent into a solution of higher concentration
semi-permeable membrane
enables movement of substances through it
