- 2. Molecules are always moving Molecules move randomly and bump into each other and other barriers
- 3. Concentration gradient Concentration Gradient - change in the concentration of a substance from one area to another.
- 4. Diffusion • Movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration. • Factors that affect the rate of diffusion: size of molecules, size of pores in membrane, temperature, pressure, and concentration.
- 5. Molecules in a solution tend to slowly spread apart over time. This is diffusion. T1 T2 T3 Diffusion
- 6. Diffusion [High] [Low] concentrated, high energy molecules diffuse, low energy molecules
- 7. Diffusion will continue until equilibrium is reached. This means there will be an equal distribution of molecules throughout the space. This is why food coloring moves throughout a beaker of water; why odors smell strong at first and then disappear over time. Equilibrium, a result of diffusion, shows the uniform distribution of molecules of different substances over time as indicated in the above diagram.

- 10. Osmosis – A Special kind of Diffusion Diffusion of water across a semi-permeable membrane (a barrier that allows some substances to pass but not others). The cell membrane is an example of this barrier. This barrier allows small molecules to pass through but large molecules can’t pass through. Example: Water
- 11. Osmosis Osmosis is the movement of WATER across a semi-permeable membrane At first the concentration of solute is very high on the left. But over time, the water moves across the semi-permeable membrane and dilutes the particles.
- 13. Hypotonic – The solution on one side of a membrane where the solute concentration is less than on the other side. Hypotonic Solutions contain a low concentration of solute relative to another solution. Hypertonic – The solution on one side of a membrane where the solute concentration is greater than on the other side. Hypertonic Solutions contain a high concentration of solute relative to another solution.
- 14. Over time molecules will move across the membrane until the concentration of solutes is equal on both sides. This type of solution is called ISOTONIC.
- 15. • Cytoplasm is a solution of water and solids (solutes dissolved in the water). • Water moves into and out of cells because of the different concentrations of the solutes. • Different kinds of cells react differently depending on the solution they are in. • Below are examples of red blood cells in different types of solutions and shows what happened to the red blood cells.
- 16. Turgor Pressure builds in the cell and causes osmosis to stop because of the rigid cell wall. Plants will wilt when cells lose water through osmosis. Hypotonic Solution Hypertonic Solution PLANT CELLS

- 18. PASSIVE TRANSPORT Passive transport occurs without expenditure of energy. Molecules move using their own kinetic energy . Diffusion and osmosis are examples of passive transport. Passive transport allows cells to get water, oxygen and other small molecules that they need. It also allows the cell to get rid of waste such as carbon dioxide. DIFFUSION OSMOSIS
