Egg-speriment Write-up Part 1- Purpose: Why did we do the experiment? The purpose of this experiment was to understand how osmosis works and that the cell membrane is selectively permeable. Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane. Many cells cannot function without adequate water‚ so cells depend on osmosis. When a cell is selectively permeable‚ it means some substances can pass through while others can’t. Many examples of these were shown throughout

Membrane Transport Objectives ► Referring to energy‚ what two ways can substances enter a cell? What is active transport? What is passive transport? How is osmosis related to diffusion? How can we demonstrate active transport? How can we demonstrate Brownian movement? How can we demonstrate diffusion (2 ways)? How can we demonstrate osmosis (3 ways)? In terms of relationships between substances‚ how can we define “hypertonic”‚ “isotonic”‚ and “hypotonic”? What is the relationship between the size

and Isotonic Solutions Affect the Water Movement of a Cell? Purpose: The purpose of this activity is to teach students about osmosis and the effects of hypotonic‚ hypertonic‚ and isotonic solutions on animal cells. This lab is designed for high school biology students but may be adapted for middle school students. Objectives: The students will be able to describe osmosis and differentiate between the effects of hypotonic‚ hypertonic‚ and isotonic solutions on animal cells and determine the equilibrium

gradient must be suitable with the pore size of each membrane because the loss of permeate flow is an undesirable condition for this experiment. After finishing the experiment‚ the volume of water collected increases according to the sequence of reverse osmosis‚ nanofiltration‚ microfiltration and ultrafitration.

type is active processes which use energy known as ATP to power the transport. There are two main types of passive processes called diffusion and filtration. This can be split into different types such as simple diffisuion‚ facilitated diffusion‚ osmosis and filtration. The objective of these experiments is to provide information on the passage of solutes and water through semi permeable membranes and relate them back to the study of actual living membranes in the human body. The purpose is to

separate methods and thus are independent of each other. Activity Three: 1. Increasing the Na+ and Cl- increases the osmotic pressure because raising the concentration of the solutes on one side of the membrane results in a larger concentration difference between both sides of the membrane. If the molecules were impermeable to the membrane‚ the only way to restore balance between concentrations would be for the movement of water across the membrane to the area of higher solute

a few types of diffusion. Three (3) of those are: Facilitated Diffusion- refers to diffusion of substances across a cell membrane with the help of transport protein. Dialysis- refers to the diffusion of solutes across a semipermeable membrane. Osmosis- refers to the diffusion of the solvent across semipermeable membrane. The concept of diffusion is widely used in physics (particle diffusion)‚ chemistry‚ biology‚ sociology‚ economics‚ and finance (diffusion of people‚ ideas and of price values)
