removed and final masses recorded‚ and the percent change was calculated. The conclusion developed from the data and knowledge was that the higher the temperature of the water‚ the more osmosis occurred. Introduction Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane from an area which is more concentrated to less concentrated. The objective of this lab was to determine if certain factors affect the amount of osmosis through a cell membrane‚ which in other

Osmosis and Diffusion During the past few weeks in my Ag Biology class we have been learning about and reviewing both osmosis and diffusion. We did two different labs‚ one on osmosis; the other on diffusion. The first lab we did was our diffusion lab. We learned that diffusion is moving something from an area of high concentration to a low concentration. We were showed that Mio and other flavor drops perform diffusion when put in water as an example. For the lab part we put a mixture of starch

Pg. 25 Once drug goes into mucosal cells‚ the concentration gradient will decrease. Blood supply to mucosal cell keeps removing drug continuously so the drug conc is smaller & this (heavy vascularisation) maintains constant gradient so that the drugs are constantly removed into the blood stream pH in stomach about 2 Implication: weak acids absorbed readily‚ weak bases not absorbed as readily Implication: some of the drugs may not be able to suvive that acidic environment. & they may disintegrate

Effect of Osmosis on Potato Aim: To investigate the effect osmosis has on potato pieces that are placed in different concentrations of sugar solutions in water. Hypothesis: I believe that the more saturated the solution is the lighter the potato will be‚ and the potato in the clear water will weigh more after being left in the solution over a 24 hour period. This is because the cell membranes in the potato act as semi permeable membranes (meaning that they only allow certain molecules through)

it takes way of water trying to enter the seed‚ therefore creating a blockage and will become inactive or germinate slowly (cocoponics‚ 2011). Unlike diffusion‚ the mixing of solute particles with water‚ Osmosis is water mixing with solute particles to pass through the cell wall and provide nutrients to the cell. Since osmosis is a type of diffusion that only involves water moving through the permeable membrane‚ salinity affects seed germination through osmotic effects (Bliss et al.‚ 1986). When

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 of a molecule and its rate of diffusion? ____________________________________________________________________________

Biology Lab Report - Movement in and out of cells (4A) Shiang Chen Ting (24) Sec 313 Introduction The aim of this experiment is to explore the factors which affect the movement of materials in and out of the cells. The dark red or purple colour of Beetroots is caused by a pigment called betalain that is found within the vacuole of the beetroot cells. The pigment remains intact within the cell if the cells are not “stressed” by the external environment. In this exploration‚ two factors that affect

Introduction: The reasons for doing this lab are so that we can learn about osmosis with a model similar to a cell and so that we can have a better understanding of the process and nature of osmosis. Osmosis is diffusion but with water molecules. A concentration gradient exists and because of this‚ diffusion of solutes can’t happen. Very select things can pass in and out‚ such as water‚ oxygen‚ and carbon dioxide. In this situation‚ a large molecule of starch would be dissolved in water because the molecule

against the gradient‚ it is active and requires energy. Passive transport describes the movement of substances down a concentration gradient and does not require energy consumption. There are many types of passive transport‚ for example: Diffusion‚ diffusion is the net movement of substances from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. This movement occurs as a result of the random and constant motion characteristic of all molecules‚ atoms‚ or ions (due to kinetic energy)
