When diffusion pressure is high A. the material is near equilibrium B.the material is far from the equilibrium C. Osmosis cannot occur And D. The semipermeable membrane may break
Answers
Answer:
Osmosis: Osmosis is the movement of solvent particles across a semipermeable membrane from a dilute solution into a concentrated solution. The solvent moves to dilute the concentrated solution and equalize the concentration on both sides of the membrane.
Diffusion: Diffusion is the movement of particles from an area of higher concentration to lower concentration. The overall effect is to equalize concentration throughout the medium.
Examples
Examples of Osmosis: Examples include red blood cells swelling up when exposed to freshwater and plant root hairs taking up water. To see an easy demonstration of osmosis, soak gummy candies in water. The gel of the candies acts as a semipermeable membrane.
Examples of Diffusion: Examples of diffusion include the scent of perfume filling a whole room and the movement of small molecules across a cell membrane. One of the simplest demonstrations of diffusion is adding a drop of food coloring to water. Although other transport processes do occur, diffusion is the key play
