Osmosis and diffusion are two types of passive transport that occur in cells, helping to regulate the movement of molecules and maintain homeostasis.
Key Concepts: Concentration gradient: The difference in concentration of molecules between two areas Equilibrium: The state where the concentration of molecules is uniform throughout Selectively permeable membrane: A membrane that allows certain molecules to pass through while restricting others Isotonic: A solution with the same concentration of solutes as the cell Hypotonic: A solution with a lower concentration of solutes than the cell Hypertonic: A solution with a higher concentration of solutes than the cell
