CHAPTER 3, OSMOTIC PRESSURE AND WATER MOVEMENT
Osmosis Is the Transport of Solvent Driven by a Difference in Solute Concentration Across a Membrane That Is Impermeable to Solute
Water Transport during Osmosis Leads to Changes in Volume
Osmotic Pressure Drives the Net Transport of Water during Osmosis
Osmotic Pressure and Hydrostatic Pressure Are Functionally Equivalent in Their Ability to Drive Water Movement Through a Membrane
Only Impermeant Solutes Can Have Permanent Osmotic Effects
