  • Selectively permeable
  • Impermeable
  • Sometimes permeable and sometimes impermeable

Frage 2

Frage
Osmosis is:
Antworten
  • Diffusion of gases from high concentration to low concentration
  • Diffusion of molecules from a region of low concentration to high concentration across a semi-permeable membrane
  • Diffusion of water molecules from a region of high water concentration to low water concentration across a semi-permeable membrane
  • Diffusion of molecules from a region of high concentration to low concentration across a semi-permeable membrane

Frage 3

Frage
What happens to a plant cell when it loses water?
Antworten
  • It becomes plasmolysed
  • It becomes turgid
  • It undergoes crenation
  • It undergoes mitosis

Frage 4

Frage
What would happen to a human blood cell if it was placed in a solution that was less concentrated than itself?
Antworten
  • It would become plasmolysed
  • It would become turgid
  • It would undergoes crenation
  • It would burst

Frage 5

Frage
What would happen to a human blood cell if it was placed in a solution that was more concentrated than itself?
Antworten
  • It would become plasmolysed
  • It would become turgid
  • It would undergo crenation
  • It would burst

Frage 6

Frage
Using your knowledge of osmosis, choose which option best describes what would happen to you if you drank sea water.
Antworten
  • You would become fully hydrated and your thirst would be quenched
  • Nothing would happen
  • You would become even more dehydrated as water would move from your blood into your stomach
  • After a short time it would increase urine formation by the kidneys

Frage 7

Frage
Turgor is:
Antworten
  • Pressure of the cell wall on the cell membrane
  • Pressure of the cell contents on the cell wall
  • Movement of water into a cell
  • Movement of water out of a cell

Frage 8

Frage
Plasmolysis is:
Antworten
  • Pressure of the cell wall against the cell membrane
  • Pressure of the cell contents on the cell wall
  • When the cell membrane has lost water and peels away from the cell wall
  • When water moves into the plant cell

Frage 9

Frage
Which one of the following is unsuitable for use as a semi-permeable membrane to demonstrate osmosis?
Antworten

  • Visking tubing
  • Cellophane
  • Plastic bag

Frage 10

Frage

Antworten
  • Salting food
  • Cold smoking food
  • Adding sugar to food
