Document Summary

Small _____________ move freely through the membrane, while ____________ have almost no permeability. The concentration of solutes is higher outside than inside the cell in The concentration of solutes is lower outside than inside the cell. It is energetically favourable for the concentration of solutes to be the This means that it is favourable for a solute to Move down a concentration gradient until equilibrium is achieved. If a solute is permeable through the membrane it will move down the gradient. You know, i always think about that will smith movie osmosis jones , but anyways Occurs when a solute cannot move across the membrane, but the solvent can. The solvent will move until the solute concentration on both sides of the membrane is the same. Well, it can severely damage cells as they will either shrink or swell, and it could be dramatic (but in that way cells that are hypertonic or hypotonic are also dangerous, amiright)
