Answer:

Osmosis is the chemical process.

Explanation:

Osmosis is the chemical process, where the solution moves from higher concentration to lower concentration through a semipermeable membrane. Osmosis may be slow or reversed, where the movement of solution is occured against the concentration gradient, from lower to higher concentration. Osmosis is similar to diffusion. Diffusion follows the same process as in osmosis without semipermeable membrane.

There are three types of osmotic solution:

Isotonic = Water moves in and out of the cell at an equal rate.

Hypotonic = Water moves into the, making it swell.

Hypertonic = Water moves out from the cell, like a raisin.

Leukopenia is a condition characterized by a decrease in white blood cells. What effect does leukopenia have on the body's abili
Korolek [52]

Leukopenia means  a low count of white blood  cells in the body. When there is a low white blood cell count in the body, and in particular a low level of neutrophils (a kind of white blood cell that fights infection), there is quite a significant risk of developing an infection, and once an infection is developed and the white blood cell count is low, the body will not be able to protect itself and fight off the infection. In severe cases , infection may lead to death.
