Osmosis is the diffusion of water. Diffusion is when cells move to an area of lower concentration through a semi permeable membrane. Osmosis only affects water. It affects water by letting water constantly move from one side of the membrane to the other. When both sides have an equal concentration, the water molecules water still moves around but equilibrium has been reached.

Place the terms into the correct column that describes the reactions of photosynthesis.
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

In the light-dependent reaction, which occurs in the THYLAKOID MEMBRANE of the chloroplast, energy from SUNLIGHT is used to breakdown WATER to release electrons in order to synthesize ATP and NADPH from ADP and NADP+. In a nutshell, the processes involved in this stage are Electron transport chain, photosystem I, photosystem II, and ATP synthase.

- In the light-independent stage, also called CALVIN CYCLE, the ATP, NADPH, and CO2 are used as reactants to synthesize SUGAR (glucose), NADP+ and ADP (which goes back to the first stage) as products.

Where is the synthesis of membrane proteins completed?
ioda
The synthesis of membrane proteins is completed in both the smooth endo retic for the lipid tails and the rough endo retic for the rest of the phospholipid structure. Proteins are transported to the golgi apparatus in vesicles (membranous sacs) and bud off of the golgi apparatus in vesicles as well. The vesicle then fuses with the membrane and releases its contents.
