Osmosis rate increase when the gradient increase. That means if you have two flask, first one has salt at a concentration of 30 %, and the second one has salt at 10 %. When you connect the two flasks together, water will move from the area of high water (low salt concentration) to the area of low water (high salt concentration), from the second flask to the first. And, if you increased the difference in gradient (first flask 60 % salt and the second 10 %) so the difference will increase and the osmosis rate will increase too.

What is osmotic change?
osmosis establishes or maintains the stable state of equillibrium
When water becomes limited what generally happens to the rate of photosynthesis?
it stops and the plant wilts due to osmosis
Why distilled water is provided to germinating seed?
if seeds are grown in distilled water then it increases rate of osmosis.
What happen when solvent is equal to solute?
solution is in equilibrium and the solvent and solute continue diffusion or osmosis at an equal rate.
This is the rate at which a substance undergoes a chemical change?
This is called reaction rate.
What is the formula to calculate the rate of osmosis?
how do you calculate the rate of osmosis
Why does temperature affect the rate of osmosis?
as the temperature increases, the rate of osmosis increases
Does temperature affect the rate of osmosis?
Yes as temperature increases. So, does the rate of osmosis.
What are the factors that affect the rate of osmosis?
The rate of osmosis is dependent on factors such as temperature, particle size (surface area), and the concentration gradient and time given for osmosis to occur
How does temperature affect osmosis rate?
Yes it does as temperature increases so does the rate of osmosis for example as temperature increases the osmotic rate gets faster etc.
How does temperature affect the rate of osmosis?

Do greatest changes in weight occur in cells with steepest concentration gradients?
Yes, it does. Because the rate and the concentration are equally related, the biggest the difference in concentration the grater the rate of change of this concentration (osmosis)

How does osmosis and diffusion affect heart rate?
In general they don't.
How does salt effect the rate of osmosis?
Salt would slow this rate considerably and the more salt in the water the slower this rate would be.
Why does temperature effect the rate of osmosis?
Theoretically, the maximum point of increase in the rate of osmosis with the increase of temperature should be the boiling point of water. At this point, the water can not get hotter (without superheating due to the addition of pressure), therefor the rate of osmosis could not be any greater.Yes, increasing temperature would result in an increase in the rate of osmosis, as the water molecules would have more energy and therefore faster Brownian motion. This means the molecules move around a lot faster, so equilibrium would be reached faster.
Does osmosis occur in dead cells?
if the membrane is intact and there is a change of concentration of solut or solvent, osmosis should happen.
