Osmosis is the diffusion of molecules from where they are abundant to where they are scarce through a semi permeable membrane.
In red blood cells, this semi permeable membrane is the cell membrane. If red blood cells were placed in a solution abundant with water molecules, they would diffuse into the cells through the membrane
Red blood cells because that is what carries oxygen throughout the body
Red Blood Cells
The four major components in blood are: -Plasma -Platelets -Red Blood Cells -White Blood Cells
Erythrocytes aka red blood cells, specifically the hemoglobin of the red blood cells
Erythrocytes (red blood cells) Leukocytes (white blood cells) Thrombocytes (platelets)
The bursting of cells due to osmosis is known as cytolysis
they don't use osmosis
i don't knoww that's why im asking you!
they have a semipermeable membrane
I believe red blood cells go through diffusion...just type this question into google: how do red blood cells use diffusion? and you should get some quality answers. hope this helps!
distlled water
because of osmosis it would get fatter and fatter with water till it burst. aww.
Red blood cells contain hemoglobin. These cells are also known as erythrocytes.
Provided the concentration of salt is higher than the salt concentration in the red blood cell, the red blood cell, through the process of osmosis and the principal of diffusion, will shrink, as water flows from within the red blood cell to the solution
Red blood cells because that is what carries oxygen throughout the body
red blood cells
Red blood cells contain hemoglobin, but white blood cells do not
