Learning outcomes
Explain osmosis as water movement across partially permeable membranes from higher to lower water potential; describe effects of osmosis on plant and animal tissues.(analyze)
Explain diffusion in terms of net movement down concentration gradients and factors affecting diffusion rate.(understand)
Describe active transport as movement against concentration gradient requiring energy from respiration and carrier proteins.(understand)
