Osmosis What is it?
Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a membrane; the movement water molecules from a region of higher water potential (lower solute concentration) to a region of lower water potential (higher solute concentration) down a concentration gradient through a selectively permeable membrane. Osmosis occurs in cells all the time.

Water Potential
high water potential = higher concentration of water molecules (more dilute)
i.e. a 5% sucrose solution has a higher water potential than a 10% sucrose solution.

TonicityTonicity is a term that describes the ability of a solution to cause a cell to gain or lose water. It mostly depends on the concentration of a solute or salts on both sides of the membrane.
- Hypotonic
- Isotonic
- Hypertonic
These solutions can only be looked at in comparison; you cannot call one solution a hypotonic or hypertonic solution. They always work in comparisons.

Hypotonic Solution- A hypotonic solution is one that has a high water potential as compared to the other solution.
- The solute concentration is lower outside the cell, water molecules move into the cell, and the cell will expand and may burst.
- This bursting of an animal cell caused by over stretching of the cell membrane is called lysis.

Isotonic Solution
- Isotonic solutions have the same water potential.
- The concentration of solute is the same on both sides of a membrane, and the cell volume will not change.

Hypertonic Solution- A hypertonic solution is one that has a lower water potential as compared to the other solution.
- The solute concentration is higher outside the cell, water molecules move out of the cell. The cell will shrink.
- Cell crenation is when an animal cell loses water and thinks. https://sites.google.com/site/talbaneses1st2013/home/part-1-
