Membrane Permeability ✔Correct Answer--Short and Unsaturated hydrocarbon tails HIGHER
permeability and fluidity
Long and Saturated hydrocarbon tails LOWER permeability and fluidity
Diffusion: ✔Correct Answer--Random movement of the molecules in solution
SPONTANEOUS - no energy required
Osmosis: ✔Correct Answer--diffusion of water across a semipermeable membrane
Solute NOT permeable
Which direction do solutes and water flow b/w solutions of different concentrate? ✔Correct
Answer--HIGH water concentration to LOW water concentration
OR
LOW solute concentration to HIGH water concentration
Hypertonic: ✔Correct Answer--Inside solution is hypertonic to outside when there are more
solutes inside the membrane
Hypotonic: ✔Correct Answer--Inside solution is hypotoic to outside when there are less solutes
inside the mebrane
Isotonic: ✔Correct Answer--Inside and Outside solutions are isotinic when there is an equal
amount of solutes inside and outside the mebrane

-only specific ions/molecules can pass
through
NO energy input
