Rhinella lindae Rhinella lindae Rhinella lindae is a species of toad in the family Bufonidae. It is endemic to Colombia and known from its type locality, Murri in the municipality of Frontino, and from , both on the western slope of the Cordillera Occidental, Antioquia Department. The specific name "lindae" honors , an American herpetologist. However, common name Murri beaked toad has been coined for this species. The holotype, an adult female, measures , whereas the paratype male—of unknown maturity status—measures in snout–vent length. The snout is long and acuminate. In the female, tympanic annulus is present but the tympanic membrane is
Cell membrane concentration in order to equilibrate the membrane. It is considered a passive transport process because it does not require energy and is propelled by the concentration gradient created by each side of the membrane. Such a concentration gradient across a semipermeable membrane sets up an osmotic flow for the water. Osmosis, in biological systems involves a solvent, moving through a semipermeable membrane similarly to passive diffusion as the solvent still moves with the concentration gradient and requires no energy. While water is the most common solvent in cell, it can also be other liquids as well as supercritical liquids and
