1. In the environment, oxygen will travel from high concentration to low concentration (out of the cell), while carbon dioxide will travel from low concentration to high concentration (into the cell).
2. In the environment, oxygen will travel from high concentration to low concentration (into the cell), while carbon dioxide will travel from low concentration to high concentration (out of the cell).
3. In the environment, oxygen will travel from high concentration to low concentration (into the cell), while carbon dioxide will travel from low concentration to high concentration (out of the cell).
4. In a hypertonic environment (higher solute concentration outside the cell), water will travel from high concentration to low concentration (out of the cell).
5. In a hypotonic environment (lower solute concentration outside the cell), water will travel from high concentration to low concentration (into the cell).
6. In a hypotonic environment, water will travel from high concentration to low concentration (into the cell).
7. Osmosis.
8. The plasma membrane's property of selective permeability prevents sugar from passing freely because the sugar molecules are too large to diffuse through the membrane, but smaller molecules like water, oxygen, and carbon dioxide can pass through.
9. The cells of a freshwater fish placed in saltwater would lose water through osmosis because the saltwater has a higher solute concentration. This can lead to dehydration and potential cell death.
10. A plant cell would become turgid (swollen) when placed in a hypotonic solution, as water would move into the cell, creating pressure against the cell wall. An animal cell, on the other hand, could potentially burst (lyse) when placed in a hypotonic solution, as water would move into the cell without a rigid cell wall to prevent excessive swelling.
The Movement of Molecules
¿usion of Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide:
Directions: Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide passively diffuse between the capillaries and air sacs in your lungs. Remember, molecules always move with the concentration gradient during passive transport (in this case diffusion)- from high concentration to low concentration.

Sugar Molecules and the Diffusion of Water (Osmosis)
'The solute sugar cannot passively diffuse through the plasma membrane. In this case, only the water will travel through the membrane. This type of diffusion is called osmosis. Water will always move with the concentration gradient during passive transport- from high concentration to low concentration. Prediot which direction the water will travel in the following situations:
