When there is no net movement of molecules after diffusion has occurred, it is called equilibrium. At this point, the concentration of molecules is equal on both sides of the membrane, resulting in no further movement of molecules.
The net movement of osmosis and diffusion stops when the concentration of solute is the same on both sides of the membrane, creating an equilibrium. At this point, there is still movement of molecules back and forth, but there is no overall change in concentration.
Diffusion is the net movement of a substance through a membrane from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. Osmosis is the diffusion of water.
Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a semi-permeable membrane, from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration, to equalize the concentration on both sides. Diffusion, on the other hand, is the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration, without the need for a membrane.
No, diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to low concentration, while osmosis is the specific type of diffusion involving water molecules moving across a semi-permeable membrane. Osmosis specifically refers to the movement of water molecules.
When molecules reach equilibrium, diffusion stops. This occurs when there is an equal concentration of molecules on both sides of the membrane and no net movement.
When there is no net movement of molecules after diffusion has occurred, it is called equilibrium. At this point, the concentration of molecules is equal on both sides of the membrane, resulting in no further movement of molecules.
Diffusion is the net movement of molecules from an area where they are at a higher concentration to areas where they are at a lower concentration. This is due to the random movement of the molecules.
Diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
Diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration, driven by random thermal motion. This process results in the equal distribution of molecules in a given space over time.
The net movement of osmosis and diffusion stops when the concentration of solute is the same on both sides of the membrane, creating an equilibrium. At this point, there is still movement of molecules back and forth, but there is no overall change in concentration.
Diffusion.
No, molecular motion does not stop when diffusion stops. Molecular motion refers to the movement of molecules within a substance, which continues even when there is no net movement of molecules from one region to another (diffusion).
Diffusion is the net movement of a substance through a membrane from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. Osmosis is the diffusion of water.
When the concentration is the same on both sides, diffusion will reach equilibrium, meaning that there will be no net movement of molecules across the membrane. At this point, the concentration of molecules will be equal on both sides and diffusion will cease.

There was a net movement of glucose into the cell through facilitated diffusion.
