Questions and Answers

What happens when the concentration of substances on both sides of the membrane is equal?

The processes of diffusion and osmosis occur, and equilibrium occurs.

How does a healthy plant maintain balance?

By allowing water to enter and exit its cells in equal quantities.

What happens to a plant when more water exits its cells than enters?

The inner parts of the cell shrink, the plasma membrane shrinks away from the cell wall, and the plant withers.
