Water will always move from ________ areas to ________ areas, if the membrane is permeable to water. isotonic, hypotonic hypertonic, hypotonic hypertonic, isotonic hypotonic, hypertonic

Respuesta :

Answer:

From hypotonic to hypertonic

Explanation:

Water diffusion is a phenomenon that occurs when a solute (eg. a salt) is present in different concentrations in different areas. Because the concentration is inversely proportional to volume (meaning that the higher the volume, the lower the concentration), water will move from areas with lower concentration (hypotonic) to areas with higher concentration (hypertonic), so as to match the concentrations.

Answer:

Water will move from hypotonic to hypertonic solutions

Explanation:

When a hypotonic solution is separated by a permeable membrane from another solution with more solute (hypertonic), water will move across the membrane until both solutions have the same concentration: when water comes into the compartment with hypertonic solution, this solute dissolves.

Water will not move from hypertonic to hypotonic without energy addition.
