- What are some other biological examples of solutes affecting water potential and therefore movement of water in a living organism? Find examples in both plant and animal.How does increasing solute concentration affect water potential? (a) water potential becomes more positive (b) water potential becomes more negative (c) water potential becomes more positive under certain conditions and more negative under other conditions (d) water potential is not affected by solute concentration (e) water potential is always zero when solutes are dissolved in waterWhen two chambers are separated by a membrane permeable to water but not solute, if water is free to move in either direction without limitation or pressure, then water will move until the concentration of solute on both sides of the chamber is equal move until there is no water on the dilute side move until there is no water on the concentrated side move until the concentration of water on both sides of the chamber is equal
- Where is there more solute in this image (inside the bag or outside the bag in the beaker)? 0.8M 0.2M Selectively permeable membrane Where is the more water? In the bag or the beaker?in what concentration gradient do water molecules move faster in? would the water molecules move faster when there is a high concentration gradient?What is meant by concentration gradient? Is it correct to refer to “concentration gradient of water”?
- Please order the following types of solute diffusivity from largest to smallest. 1. D pore: Diffusivity of solute in a pore 2.De: Effective diffusivity of solute through a heterogeneous membrane material 3. D AB: Diffusivity of solute in water 4. D mi Diffusivity of solute through a membrane pore relative to the bulk concentrationEquilibrium means all of the following except (which is false?) the concentration gradient for a solute is the same on either side of the membrane. molecules are in equal concentration and therefore no longer move across the membrane. there is no net movement molecules across a membrane. the water concentration is equal on either side of the membrane.Consider the two solutions separated by an ideal semipermeable membrane (permeable to water but impermeable to solute). Assuming complete dissociation of all the salts you can expect: a.) net water movement from side 1 to side 2 b.) net water movement from side 2 to side 1 c.) no net water movement
- Which other solutes you could potentially find in or on your cuvette that would bias the measurement of solute concentration?i just answered a hw question that i was a little confused on. i answered it but am not fully sure if it's correct. so can you take a look at check if my answer is correct and if it's not, then a explaintion would be helpful. Would you expect water molecules to move faster when there is a HIGH concentration gradient or a LOW concentration gradient? Water molecules would move faster when there is a high concentration gradient because the pressure for the molecules in the high concentration to reach equilibrium increases since there are more molecules there than in the low concentration. So as the molecules move down the concentration gradient faster to equalize the concentration on both sides due to the increased pressure, the rate of diffusion increases.Which of the following is false concerning osmosis? Question options: The net movement of water molecules from a region of lower water potential to a region of higher water potential across a semipermeable membrane. Individual molecules of water are in constant flux into and out of cells. The movement of water molecules from a region of higher water potential to a region of lower water potential across a semipermeable membrane. The effects of osmosis vary between cell types.
