Document Summary

Diffusion continues until the gradient disappears and the molecule is in dynamic. Molecules move down concentration gradient due to their own kinetic. The distance the solutes have to travel is shorter; The temperature of the solution is higher; and. The surface area the solutes move across is larger. Passive process: does not use cellular energy. energy. equilibrium. Ions and charges across cell membranes: membrane in addition to the concentration gradients of individual solutes. compartment regardless of their concentration gradient. Osmosis is a special term that refers to the passive movement of water across a semipermeable membrane. with the greater total concentration of solutes (irrespective of what those solutes are). These electrochemical gradients are physiologically critical, but more complicated. This can cause charged solutes to be attracted to the oppositely charged. When osmosis occurs, water moves passively across a membrane toward the side. If transported solutes are charged, there may be an electrical gradient across the.
