Learn the idea
A biological explanation should connect cause and mechanism. Osmosis is net water movement across a selectively permeable membrane down a water-potential gradient. Population estimates and genetic predictions depend on model assumptions; a numerical result alone is not a diagnosis or a universal rule.
Worked example
In a simplified cell model without a wall, net water entry can increase cell volume. A plant cell wall resists expansion and supports turgor. Solute concentration alone needs care when pressure effects matter.
- Identify the system and membrane.
- Explain the direction with the appropriate gradient.
- State a limit of the model.
