OSMOSE - CÉLULA ANIMAL X CÉLULA VEGETAL | Biologia com Samuel Cunha
Introduction and Overview of Osmosis
- Osmosis is a passive transport process through a semipermeable membrane, involving solvent movement without energy expenditure.
- Three main types of transport: passive, active, and vesicular active; osmosis is crucial in biology and for exams.
- Osmosis defined as solvent (mainly water) movement across a semipermeable membrane from hypotonic to hypertonic environments without energy use.
Understanding Osmosis Concepts
- Exam questions may involve cell behavior in different solution concentrations (hypertonic, hypotonic, isotonic).
- Comparing solutions' tonicity helps understand osmosis effects on cells based on solute concentration differences.
Examples and Applications of Osmosis
- Explaining tonicity scenarios with examples like placing cells in hypertonic, hypotonic, or isotonic solutions.
- Demonstrating the impact of solution tonicity on animal and plant cells through practical examples.
Osmosis Effects on Cells
- Understanding the consequences of placing red blood cells in hypotonic solutions due to water movement.
Osmosis and Cell Structures
Water Movement in Cells
- Osmosis is the passive movement of water from a hypotonic to a hypertonic solution in animal cells.
- In plant cells, the presence of a cell wall affects water movement differently compared to animal cells.
- Plasmolysis occurs in plant cells when placed in a hypertonic solution, causing the cell to shrink but remain attached to the cell wall.
Cell Differences and Osmotic Effects
- Plant cells have a cell wall, while animal cells do not, impacting their response to osmotic changes.
- The presence of a cell wall in plant cells influences how they respond to solutions with varying solute concentrations.
- Plant cells become turgid when placed in a hypotonic solution due to water influx, leading to swelling without bursting.
Osmotic Scenarios and Cellular Responses
- Placing a plant cell in a hypertonic solution results in water leaving the cell, causing it to shrink and potentially burst.
- Understanding plasmolysis helps explain why plant cells exhibit specific responses to different osmotic conditions.
Osmosis and Passive Transport
Understanding Osmotic Pressure
- Osmotic pressure explained in relation to water movement through a semipermeable membrane.

Aquela Aluno que Pa
- Student who not only studied but also stayed until the end seeking advice and tips.
- Encouragement to watch until the end for a good morning message.
- Not everyone feels motivated to comment "I watched till the end" but it helps the professor.
Torna Impossível Responder Tudo
- Difficulty in responding to all comments due to time constraints.
- The challenge of managing notifications on the phone while trying to help students.
