Q

Osmotic pressure

A

Minimum amount of pressure required to stop the diffusion of pure water across the membrane. If a vessel is divided into two Chambers and pure water is placed into one chamber while a solution such as sugar water is placed in the other chamber the water level will rise on the side of the greater solute concentration therefore the diffusion of water will continue in this direction until the pressure becomes too great The water will have moved from high to low water concentrations.

Q

Facilitated diffusion

A

Molecules diffuse across the plasma membrane with assistance from membrane proteins such as channels and carriers a concentration gradient exists for these molecules so they have the potential to diffuse into or out of the cell by moving down it.
