    water trying to enter the seed‚ therefore creating a blockage and will become inactive or germinate slowly (cocoponics‚ 2011). Unlike diffusion‚ the mixing of solute particles with water‚ Osmosis is water mixing with solute particles to pass through the cell wall and provide nutrients to the cell. Since osmosis is a type of diffusion that only involves water moving through the permeable membrane‚ salinity affects seed germination through osmotic effects (Bliss et al.‚ 1986). When NaCl is present

    Abstract: The importance of this computerized simulation study was to gain an understanding of the processes that account for the movement of substances across the plasma membrane‚ and to indicate the driving force for each. This may also be applied to the study of transport mechanisms in living membrane-bounded cells. Also‚ understanding of which way substances will move passively through a deferentially permeable membrane depending on the concentration differences. We used PhysioEx software to

    to the leaves of a plant. At first water enters the root by osmosis because the soil water has a lower solute concentration of minerals than the epidermal cell cytoplasm (there is a water potential gradient). Water movement across the cortex cell is by two pathways both involving a water potential gradient. The cortex cell cytoplasm has a solute concentration gradient. This moves water symplastically from cell to cell by osmosis. The Apoplastic pathway moves water by capillary action of mass

    Civil war and how food actually affected the war? With the fundamental to life we all need food‚ water‚ and shelter maybe the necessities of life‚ but some may argue also love is needed to live a life we want. With some great home cooking with a little love in that food you can never be mad at anyone while eating this‚ but what happens when that food isn’t available. Today‚ I researched what these civil war solders ate during this terrible time trying to steer this new nation in the their path

    relatively quickly through by dissolving in the lipid layer. Water needs to pass through via osmosis where as water-soluble substances cross the membrane through simple diffusion‚ facilitated diffusion and active transport. Osmosis is thought of as the diffusion of water from an area of high concentration of water molecules to an area of low concentration‚ across a partially permeable membrane. To define osmosis more accurately we define it in terms of water potential. Water potential is a measure of
