Introduction: The purpose of experiment 1 was to demonstrate the principle of simple diffusion and understand how to make % solutions. Exercise 2 demonstrated the principle of osmosis: observing the movement of water by osmosis from an area of lower concentration of a solute to an area of higher concentration of a solute. Materials and Method: Refer to pages 47-51 of Bio 203L Lab Manual. Results/ Discussion: The effect of the chloride ion on its rate of diffusion in agar means it will diffuse

Lipids and Phospholipids The main role of phospholipids is that they can form lipid bilayers. It is an amphipathic molecule. The head which is hydrophilic contains a group of phosphate‚ a diglyceride and a simple molecule e.g. choline. The tail is hydrophobic and is made up of fatty acids. Phospholipids receive and transmit signals across the cell membrane and act as a store room for energy. The main role of phospholipids is that they can form lipid bilayers. It is an amphipathic molecule. The

Determining the Rate of Osmosis with Water and Sucrose 10/3/2012 Determining the Rate of Osmosis with Water and Sucrose Author: Results: Bag 1 had a rate of osmosis equal to 0.01 grams per minute. Bag 2 had a rate of osmosis equal to 0.0543 grams per minute. Bag 3 had a rate of osmosis equal to 0.0471 grams per minute. Bag 4 had a rate of osmosis equal to 0.0886 grams per minute. Bag 5 had a rate of osmosis equal to -0.0914 grams per minute (Figure A). Figure A: Shifting of mass

Salt Marshes‚Mangroves‚and Coral Reefs Salt Marshes • Salt marshes are found along low lying coastlines where boggy ground is flooded by sea water either daily or less frequently. • Many UK salt marshes have been reclaimed for farm land‚ but those that remain provide valuable habitats where salt-tolerant plants grow and birds nest. Salt marshes also pay a vital role for coastal protection‚ they contain creeks which allow tidal waters to flow both in and out which reduces the wave energy

VII. Conclusion The hypothesis that if a potato is placed in a tube with different sucrose concentrations then the tube with the lowest concentration of sucrose will expand the potato the most because the water will move into the potato to even out the concentration levels of the sucrose/ water ratio inside and outside of the potato was supported by the data. The data shows that the potato submerged in the lowest concentration of the sucrose water solution had the greatest percent change in mass

I have been asked to investigate the effects of osmosis on potato cell sap. I will test potato cylinders in different strengths of sucrose solution and record any results in a table. I will then analyse my findings and work out the isotonic point of the potato cell sap. Prediction I have looked at my scientific knowledge from the background theory I carried out and I will base my prediction upon this information. In this experiment‚ I expect the different concentrations to show fairly noticeable

Biology 6th period 2/12/15 Gummy Bear Osmosis Lab Report Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to measure the amount of Osmosis in different types of solutions and to see how a cell would react in different types of solutions. Hypothesis: My hypothesis for this experiment is that the Gummy bear will absorb more of the plain tap and sugar water and the salt water will shrink the gummy Procedure: Materials- 3 clear cups‚ one spoon‚ 3 gummy bears‚ timer‚ tap water‚ salt‚ sugar‚ ruler‚ and beaker Fill one

Diffusion and Osmosis Lab Introduction • What molecules can pass through a semi-permeable membrane? In this lab study we tested carbohydrates such as starch and glucose‚ as well as solutions like Benedict’s and Lugol’s to see if they would cross the membrane of a cell but since we can’t actually see that happen we used dialysis tubing (acts as the cell membrane). • My prediction was that glucose and Benedict’s could pass the semi-permeable membrane but starch and Lugol’s wouldn’t be able to

are in an area‚ the more collisions there will be. These collisions cause molecules to push away from each other. So‚ over time‚ the molecules of a substance will continue to spread out. Eventually‚ they will be spread evenly throughout the area. Osmosis is the diffusion of water. (when “the substance” that is diffusing is water)
