The process of gas moving from an area of high concentration to an area or low concentration across the concentration gradient
1 of 10
Osmosis
The process of water moving through a semi-permeable from with a low concentration of solutes to a high concentration of solutes against the concentration gradient
2 of 10
Active transport
The movement of substances from a region of low concentration to high concentration against the concentration gradient. This process requires energy usually from an ATP
3 of 10
ATP
Adenosine Triphosphate
4 of 10
Hypertonic
When the external concentration of solvent:solutes is greater than the internal concentration of solvent:solutes and can cause an animal cell to become Shriveled and a plant cell Plasmolyzed
5 of 10
Isotonic
When the external concentration of solvent:solutes is equal to the internal concentration of solvent:solutes and can lead to an animal cell being Normal and a plant cell being Flaccid
6 of 10
Hypotonic
When the external concentration of solvents:solutes is less than the internal concentration of solvent:solutes and can lead to an animal cell becoming lysed and a plant cell becoming turgid

The liquid in a solution
