Solutions • A solution is made up of two parts, the solute and the solvent. • The solute (can be solid) dissolves in the solvent. • A concentrated solution has a lot of solute dissolved in the solvent. • A dilute solution has a small amount of solute dissolved in the solvent.
Diffusion • Diffusion is the movement of particles from a high concentration to a lower concentration until they spread out evenly (look at first slide). • Osmosis is the passage of water molecules from a dilute solution into a more concentrated solution through a partially permeable membrane (some liquid can get through).
Turgidity • When a cell increases the amount of water, it is said to be turgid. • When water is lost from the cell, it is said to have wilted (plant) or flaccid (animal).
