Endocytosis process by which a cell takes material into the cell
by infolding of the cell membrane
osmosis Low to High, Diffusion of water through a
selectively permeable membrane
Diffusion Movement of molecules from an area of higher
concentration to an area of lower concentration.
tonicity the ability of a surrounding solution to cause a cell
to gain or lose water
isotonic solution when the concentration of two solutions is the
same (moving in and out equally)
hypertonic solution A solution in which the concentration of solutes is
greater outside then inside the cell that resides in
the solution
hypotonic solution Solute concentration is less than the inside the cell;
cell gains water
oncotic pressure pulls fluid into the capillaries and/or prevents fluid
from leaving.
hydrostatic pressure increases filtration by pushing fluid and solute OUT
of the capillaries
crenation This happens when a cell shrinks and shrivels; can
result in cell death if severe.
hemolysis destruction/split of red blood cells
