Term
| pick the correct statement |
|
Definition
| solutes are dissolved into solvents |
|
|
Term
| a low water concentration means |
|
Definition
| a high solute concentration |
|
|
Term
| is it true water moves into a higher solute concentration |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| a high solute concentration means a |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| water will move to the side of the membrane where there is |
|
Definition
| higher concentration of solutes |
|
|
Term
| what does semipermeable mean in reference to the cell membrane? |
|
Definition
| it means that it allows certain things to pass through into the cell membrane and not others |
|
|
Term
| what happens when salt is added to one side? |
|
Definition
| the water molecules move from low solute to high solute side |
|
|
Term
| water will stop moving through the cell membrane completely once the concentration of water is the same on both sides |

|
Term
| what does hypertonic mean in relation to the concentrations? |
|
Definition
| hypertonic means there is a high solute concentration |
|
|
Term
| if you were to compare hypotonic to hypertonic, how do they compare to each other? |
|
Definition
| they compare to each other because they both have a solute concentration just higher and lower |
|
|
Term
| the side with more solutes is |

Definition
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| isotonic means equal sides of solute |
|
|
Term
| how would you differentiate between hypertonic, hypotonic, and isotonic and their effect on blood cells? |
|
Definition
| i know hyper means more, hypo means less and iso means equal so that is how i tell them apart. the hypertonic effect on blood cells makes them swell. the isotonic effect makes it a normal red blood cell and hypotonic makes it shrinken |
|
|
Term
| if object a is hypotonic and object b is hypertonic, where and why would water move between the two objects? |
|
Definition
| object a water would move into object b because it has higher solute concentration and object b water would stay there because they stay wherever the higher solute concentration is. |
