Document Summary

Size: whether it will make it in or not. Movement of ions from high concentrations to low concentrations. As temp goes up, the rate of diffusion goes up. Depending on the area (how big), rate goes up. As size goes up the rate goes down. You want to keep distance low, surface area and concentration gradient high. Net diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane. Water moves from areas of low concentration to high concentration. Isotonic: concentration of solute identical to the cell , there is no net osmotic movement. Hypertonic: solute particles can"t move, net diffusion of water from out to in, causing swelling -> lysis, higher concentration of water inside the cell, causing shrinking ->crenation. Saturation: determine upper limit of carrier method. Diffuse from areas of high to low concentration. Use energy to push something across a concentration gradient. Pump use energy to move things across a membrane. Co-transport carrier (two things moved by the same carrier)
