Osmosis
Muhtasari
Leave a limp stick of celery in water and it turns crisp again; soak a potato chip in salty water and it goes floppy. Both are caused by osmosis, the movement of water across a partially permeable membrane. It is how plants stand upright, how roots drink, and how every cell keeps its water balance.
In this lesson you will learn the role of water in organisms, what osmosis is, how to investigate it, and how solutions of different strengths change plant and animal cells. At Extended level you will use water potential and the terms turgid, flaccid and plasmolysis to explain what you see.
Malengo
- [Core] State that water diffuses through partially permeable membranes by osmosis
- [Core] State that water moves into and out of cells by osmosis through the cell membrane
- [Core] Investigate and describe the effects on plant tissues of immersing them in solutions of different concentrations
- [Supplement] Describe osmosis as the net movement of water molecules from a region of higher water potential (dilute solution) to a region of lower water potential (concentrated solution), through a partially permeable membrane
- [Supplement] Explain the effects on plant cells of immersing them in solutions of different concentrations by using the terms: turgid, turgor pressure, plasmolysis, flaccid
