the beetroot cells. Osmosis‚ which is the net movement of water particles from a region of higher water potential to a region of lower water potential through a selectively-permeable membrane until equilibrium is reached‚ occurs the most for the beetroot cells which are submerged in the 4ml of 50% alcohol. This is because‚ the 4ml of 50% alcohol is the most concentrated solution among the 5 set-ups‚ hence would be the most hypertonic solution to the beetroot cells. Hence‚ osmosis would occur more rapidly

Where McDonald’s is offering vegetarian products such as McAloo Tikki‚ which is derived from traditional North Indian snack made of boiled potatoes and various spices. "Aloo" means potato‚ and the word "Tikki" means a cutlet. It is served hot along with tamarind and coriander-mint sauce and sometimes chickpeas and yogurt. Since‚ the food is an essential part of cultural profile and by introducing local flavors McDonald’s has struck

Cell Membrane Permeability and Osmosis Experiment 3 Objectives: To demonstrate the mechanism involved in Osmosis; To demonstrate the tonicity of solutions by subjecting the cells to different concentration of solute. To view‚ under the microscope‚ any change in the shape and volume of the cells after subjecting them to different concentrations of solutes; To demonstrate the permeability of cell membrane by subjecting the cells to different solutes; To demonstrate the mechanism involved in

The Uses of water in Living Things Topics I have chosen to cover: - Osmosis & Water potential - Condensation & Hydrolysis Reactions - Digestion – the importance of water - Blood and tissue fluid To emphasise the sheer importance of water in living things and to put the content of this essay in to perspective‚ I am firstly going to inform you that the human body is approximately 50-75% water. Without water our body would be unable to successfully perform the numerous complex reactions and

LAB REPORT 1 - LAB 7 CELL MEMBRANE FUNCTION Marisela Camacho Legarreta June 30‚ 2013 ACTIVITY 1 INTRODUCTION Be aware that all molecules have kinetic energy‚ which means that is an active energy that is always in motion. Molecules move in all different ways and this create an evenly distributed movement which is best known as diffusion. Diffusion is the movement of molecules from a region of their higher concentration to a lower concentration. METHODS Check the reaction of different

THE EFFECT OF THE WATER CONCENTRATION GRADIENT ON THE RATE OF OSMOSIS Investigation Folio: Summative Stage 1 Biology: SEMESTER 1 2014 MARCIA SHAW - 151003X INTRODUCTION Diffusion: is when something spreads more widely from a higher concentration gradient to a lower concentration gradient. Diffusion is the process from which molecules‚ atoms or ions mingle together and move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration as a result to their kinetic energy. for example

Exploration Research Question What is the effect of different concentrations of sucrose in a solution on the mass and surface area of a beetroot (Beta Vulgaris) piece? Background The membrane consists of a phospholipid bilayer which is semi permeable. Osmosis is the passive movement of water molecules from an area of high water potential to an area of low water potential across a semi-permeable membrane. It is easy for water molecules to pass through this membrane however solutes that are big in size may

cell wall as a result of water loss through osmosis. Osmosis is a type of passive transport involving movement of water molecules across a partially permeable membrane. 1. RESEARCH QUESTION How does 15% NaCl solution affect the appearance of onion cells? 2. HYPOTHESIS If onion cells are submerged in solutions of NaCl of different concentrations‚ then cells will lose water and the plasma membrane will shrink. This is because the process of osmosis will take place. Because of a difference between

Cellular Transport Worksheet KEY OSMOSIS Copy the pictures below‚ and write the correct type of solution underneath (isotonic‚ hypertonic‚ or hypotonic) Hypotonic Hypertonic Isotonic Hypertonic means there is a GREATER concentration of solute molecules OUTSIDE the cell than inside. Hypo tonic means there is a LOWER concentration of solute molecules OUTSIDE the cell than inside. Isotonic means there
