CrazCo Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Two Questions Now! My guesses/thoughts provided? Any help? Thanks! 1. If CO2’s concentration in the fluid out of the cell was higher than inside it what would occur? What would make it so this would not typically happen? - The cell would shrink. Equilibrium prevents it. 2. Why do gardeners soak their fresh veggies in salt water before fresh water? - To create an electrolyte? I honestly have not a clue. ^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedarkshade Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 1. The direction materials will move throughout osmosis is dependent on which factor?- The concentration I'd say yes! After all, osmosis is a physical process and that means that substances move from the place with greater concentration to a place with smaller concentration! And (as you may know) the difference of osmosis from diffusion is that in osmosis substances move through membrane!. 3. How is facilitated diffusion different from diffusion and osmosis? How do this help the cells?- Uses protein channels. Brings in the larger molecules without using energy. None of them (diffusion , osmosis) uses energy, they're physical processes. Active transport does!4. If CO2’s concentration in the fluid out of the cell was higher than inside it what would occur? What would make it so this would not typically happen?Think of how oxygen enters in alveoles and you'll get the right answer. It's a matter of diffusion:rolleyes: 6. How come it is not suggested to drink distilled/salt water? Distilled water is not suggested due to lack of some very important salts for organism!

CrazCo Posted February 26, 2008 Author Share Posted February 26, 2008 lol thanks! and yea this is the HW section, lmao! alveoles? lol, alright :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedarkshade Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 alveoles? lol, alright :|Did I misspell it???? edit: upsss didn't notice it was in the HW... it didn't use to be in front page!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazCo Posted February 28, 2008 Author Share Posted February 28, 2008 Maybe you did, haha! I don't even know what they are, I gotsta whip out the dictionary.com remaining two are the ones I haven't gotten Pretty Pweeze! handed it in todayyyy what were you meaning about the aveoles and stuff ? that is stays in your blood or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedarkshade Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 handed it in todayyyy what were you meaning about the aveoles and stuff ? that is stays in your blood or something Alveoles are filled with oxygen due to diffusion, and it's diffusion that applies to the question where I mentioned alveoles!
