I cant even tell you how much this helped me. My biology teacher does this thing where she zips through the notes in a week and then gives us problems on the test we didnt learn. This makes it so simple for me to understand, breaking it down like this. your amazing, thankyou.

[@wrkin90044]

They weren't kidding when they said Khan Academy is good at explaining things!

i swear,you are the best teach ever! my biology teacher is good,but in these cases where i wasnt in class and i have no idea hor to explain these stuff to myself,youre a life savior. god bless your soul!!!

Osmosis is the diffusion of water as a solvent from a low concentration of solute to a high sconcentration of solute, through a semi-permeable membrane. thanks sal!

A week? Dude I am learning IGCSE Biology and my teacher "covered" the whole chapter in 45 minutes and I am still confused.

[@maddimaher6367]

Wow I might not actually fail my test tomorrow

[@dora42]

Ha me2

[@OliviaPlunkett]

My teacher should just show this and save himself the confusion and time of making a lesson. I literally learned more from this short(ish) video than I did from a whole biology unit. This was a great test review too!

[@aishwaryajayan7687]

You've got a fun way of explaining things without losing the boudary!!!I have understood topics in a much better way!!!You're the best Sal!!!

[@annmaryabraham7322]

idk why but i just love how colorful the whole thing is, its one of my favourite things about these videos tbh

[@soxpuff]

You introduce concepts WAY better than my teacher. This 19 minute vid was concentrated with clear information and I understood much more than when my teacher spends an hour jumping from concept to concept.

[@carendavis7426]

Thank you! After hours of textbooks, notes, and lectures, it was majorly confusing. But your nineteen minute video? Completely makes sense now.

[@ajlakameric2684]

honestly, this is one of the rare videos on the channel where everything was overly generalized, and the explanations were not-so-amazing

[@cobiobrien3038]

Wow I've been watching videos all day to study for finals. But your videos are by far the most clear and easitest to understand. Thank you so much

[@iwannadie1861]

Wow this comment was 7 years agooo 😂💀👀❤️

[@ilovebiriyani101]

I take Bio in 8th grade so it makes things harder to take it earlier. What makes it worst is that our teacher CANNOT TEACH. Instead of showing examples, all we do is take notes. After watching this video it enhanced my knowledge of diffusion and osmosis. Its SOO much easier now and less complicated. If I had Sal as my teacher my life would've been SO MUCH EASIER.

[@iwannadie1861]

i have been very sick for almost two weeks, and the day i get back I have to take a test on this. My class has been going over it for two weeks, so I had to learn it all in one day. I watched this video and got an A on the test, while everyone else got a b-c on it. Thank you so much.

Your video helped me soooo much to finally understand diffusion and Osmosis!! I'm studying for my CCHT test and these are the related questions I had the hardest time with.....until you explained it in a way I could understand. Thank you so much!!!

[@brittani.alyssa]

I have been reading about semi permeability, diffusion, and osmosis for nearly two weeks now. I felt like all my resources were giving me conflicting responses. I get it now!!!!!!!!!! :)

[@littlesadlerable]

*mindblown* why can my teacher teach it this simply

[@ifiehill1789]

God bless you. That really helped a lot. My biology teacher was really confusing but you straightened it out.

[@pinkcherryblossomful]

we spent a week trying to learn this and my i didnt understand.... now i just learned it in less than 20 minutes. how about i just drop out of school and just watch khans videos all day?

[@hellokittyx958]

After watching this, I got 90% on Osmosis and Diffusion test. Thank you!!!! Credit definitely goes to khanacademy!

[@nicolepowers5935]

I have read this several times in my A&P book and saw several videos and did not understand.. This video totally makes sense. THANK YOU!! : ))

[@ProfessorPeasant]

In the first 4 minutes alone, you taught me more than my teacher could manage in a week. Exceptional, subscribed :)

[@YesForNo]

The thing is that english is not my language and I clearly understand what he's saying. I just listened all proces of photosynthesis and I feel illuminated about it.. Now I'll explain it to my teacher :D

I'm studing at home and was ment to go on a break, but i was actully enjoying your teaching style so much i watched into my break, so clear, thankyou so much!!!! You rock.

[@andrewainger]

Thanks two questions: (1) I understand Sugar but what about salt? Will it work? Well of course it will, BUT, when the solute is placed in solution, we get Na+ ions etc and these are real small, so why don't we get these ions traversing the membrane? (or have I misunderstood) (2) Einstein said we can never create or destroy energy, so if osmosis increases the pressure on the hyper-tonic side, where does the energy come from? (Does the temperature change or what?) Thanks . . . AA

[@herbpixie]

Thank you! Doing an anatomy and physiology experiment on osmosis and diffusion tomorrow, and I now have a much better understanding of the principles behind it.

It is not confusing but very helpful :D Thanks so much..This is probably the first time I understand what Osmosis or Diffusion is! ..I didn't understand anything what my teacher tried to explain me :)

[@XxsuperstudlyxX]

I thank you so much for going into detail as to why all this stuff happens, my brain won't just accept that something just happens and that's the way my teacher explains it, but you take more time to explain why it happens, why diffusion occurs the way it does and it helps me a lot and helps me comprehend it better :) thank you

[@MrMcBruisycheeks]

Thank you, this really helped. I liked how you explained exactly why the solute goes from high concentration to low concentration until equilibrium is reached. I never understood that part. The illustration that was particularly helpful to me was the one of sugar molecules blocking the openings in the membranes.
