    Diffusion and Osmosis Worksheet: Garrison O'Level Campus Cantt, Quetta

    Uploaded by

    gulmina
    This document contains a 23-question worksheet about diffusion and osmosis. Diffusion is defined as the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to low concentration through a partially permeable membrane. Osmosis is defined as the movement of water molecules across a partially permeable membrane from an area of higher water potential to lower water potential. During osmosis, water moves into or out of a cell in order to equalize the concentration of water molecules on both sides of the membrane. Some examples of diffusion include the movement of carbon dioxide out of leaf stomata and the movement of oxygen from alveoli into capillaries. Active transport requires energy and moves molecules against a concentration gradient, while passive transport does
