            Annotations:

            • Turgid / Plasmolysed (deplasmolysis)
            1. Diffusion

              Annotations:

              • high concentration to low concentration across a concentration gradient
              1. Osmosis

                Annotations:

                • Osmosis - water molecules across a semi-permeable membrane
                1. Solutions

                  Annotations:

                  • Hypotonic - higher concentration of water than the other solution Hypertonic - lower concentration of water than the other solution Isotonic - Equal concentration of water to the other solution.
