Movement of Substances
Osmosis
Learning outcomes
After completing this chapter, you will able to :
• Define osmosis as the passage of water
molecules from a region of their higher
concentration to a region of their lower
concentration through a partially permeable
membrane
• Describe the importance of water potential
gradient in the uptake of water by plants and
its effect on plant and animals tissues
Special Kind of Diffusion
Diffusion
• Move from HIGH to LOW concentration
– “passive transport”
– no energy needed
diffusion
movement of water
osmosis
Osmosis : Passive Transport
• Osmosis: diffusion of
water through a
selectively permeable
membrane
• Water moves from high to
low concentrations
•Water moves freely
through pores.
•Solute (green) to large
to move across.
Channels through cell membrane
• Membrane becomes semi-permeable with
protein channels
– specific channels allow specific material across
cell membrane

Solution
Solutions are made of solute and a solvent
(water)
Solute - substance that is dissolved or put
into the solvent. Salt and sucrose are
solutes.
DIFFUSION
Solvent - the
liquid into which
the solute is
poured and
dissolved. We
will use water as
our solvent
today.

Concentration of water
• Direction of osmosis is determined by
comparing total solute concentrations
– Hypertonic - more solute, less solvent (water)
– Hypotonic - less solute, mores solvent (water)
– Isotonic - equal solute, equal solvent (water)

Effect of Water on Cells
•
Hypertonic Environment
– High [solute], low [water]
•
Hypotonic Environment
– High [water], low [solute]
Hypertonic
•
Isotonic Environment
– [water] = [solute]

What is the direction of water movement?
Animals and Plant Cells in Isotonic Solution
Isotonic
Result: Water moves equally in both directions and the cell
remains same size! (Dynamic Equilibrium)

Plant Cell
in High Water Potential
Hypotonic

Lyses
Result: Water moves from the solution to inside the cell):
Cell Swells and bursts open
Animals and Plant Cell in Low Water Potentials
Hypertonic
Crenates
Plasmolysis
shrinks
Result: Water moves from inside the cell into the solution:
Cell shrinks
Managing water balance
• Cell survival depends on balancing water
uptake & loss

Cell (compared to beaker)  hypertonic or hypotonic
Beaker (compared to cell)  hypertonic or hypotonic
Which way does the water flow?  in or out of cell
Summary
• Osmosis is Diffusion of
water across a selectively
permeable membrane.
• Occurs until water is
balanced on both sides of
the membrane.
