Define: 1. Osmosis 2. active transport 3. diffusion 4. transpiration 5. transpiration pull
Answers
1) osmosis: movement of a solvent (such as water) through a semipermeable membrane (as of a living cell) into a solution of higher solute concentration that tends to equalize the concentrations of solute on the two sides of the membrane
2)Transport : The human transport system is a system of tubes with a pump and valves to ensure one way blood flow. We need a transport system to deliver oxygen, nutrients and other substances to all our body cells, and take away waste products from them.
3)Diffusion: Diffusionis a physical process that refers to the net movement of molecules from a region of high concentration to one of lower concentration. The material that diffuses could be a solid, liquid or gas. ... One of the main characteristics of diffusion is the movement of molecules along the concentration gradient
4)Transpiration:Transpiration is the process where plants absorb water through the roots and then give off water vapor through pores in their leaves. An example of transpiration is when a plant absorbs water in its roots.
5)transpiration pull:The molecules of water show cohesion and molecules of water and vessel wall show adhesion. Because of cohesive and adhesive forces, water column does not break and is pulled upward by the force called as transpiration pull
Answer: 1)Osmosis-movement of water from the are of higher concentration to the area of higher concentration to the area of lower concentration through semi permeable membrane. 2)Active transport-it is the movement of molecules from a region of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration with the use of energy. 3)Diffusion-movement of substances from the area of higher concentration to the area of lower concentration. 4)Transpiration-it is a process where plants absorb water through the roots and then give off water vapour through pores in their leaves. 5)Transpiration pull-a biological process in which the force of pulling is produced inside the xylem tissue.
