the random movement of any particle down its concentration gradient
|
|
what is osmosis
|
Diffusion of water across a semi-permeable membrane
|
|
what is a solute |
particles that dissolve in a liquid
|
|
what is the solvent ?
|
The liquid the solutes dissolve in
|
|
def Hemolyze
|
When a red blood cell breaks apart
|
|
define Crenate
|
when a red blood cell shrivels up
|
|
if a red blood cell is placed in a hypotonic solutions it will
|
Hemolyze
|
|
If a red blood cell is placed in a hypertonic solution it will?
|
crenate
|
|
If a cell is at 9% concentration of Naci |
the cell is hypotonic to the solution the solution is hypertonic to the cell
|
|
what changes the rate of osmosis
|
it isnot at a constant rate and is changed by heat , concentration of solutes and temp
|
|
can a crenated cell rebound and become whole again?
|
Yes
|
|
can a hemolyzed cell become whole again
|
no
|
|
Given that NaCI 58 ci weigh and that 0.9% solution means that 0.9 grams are added to 100ml water
|
find the molarity and osmolarity of saline
