Introduction This experiment was osmosis and diffusion. In this experiment I began by calculating the volume of a fresh chicken egg. Then to determine the effect of osmotic pressure change on a cell I soaked the raw chicken egg in vinegar for 24 hrs‚ and measured the volume of the egg after the shell had been dissolved by the vinegar. The egg was then submerged in corn syrup for 1-24 hrs‚ then measured and recorded the new egg volume. Finally the egg was submerged in water for 1-24hrs‚ again the

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

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)

down its concentration gradient from the air to the blood‚ while at the same time carbon dioxide can diffuse down its concentration gradient from the blood to the air. The sheer number of alveoli inside the lungs means that the surface area for diffusion to take place is huge. In humans‚ carbon dioxide waste is breathed out through the lungs. Ammonia produced from cells is converted to urea as it is much less toxic and is excreted through the kidneys. Fish: Gas exchange is more difficult

MODELING LEACHATE MIGRATION FROM A LANDFILL December‚ 2003 1 INTRODUCTION A two-dimensional‚ steady state transport modeling using MODFLOW/CTRAN was carried out following the particle tracking calculations to simulate potential contamination for leachate migration from Gibraltar landfill. Gibraltar landfill was a disposal waste site in Bogotá (Colombia) until 1988. The site presented problems related to contamination for leachate migration after its closure‚ since the operation

*Passive processes Diffusion: The Principle Diffusion – When molecules and ions level out concentration. Equilibrium – When the substance is evenly spread out through the substance and the concentration gradient disappears. Simple Diffusion – Substances diffuse across the membrane in one of two ways: Lipid-soluble substances diffuse through the lipid bilayer. Ions diffuse through the pores of ion channels formed by integral proteins. Facilitated Diffusion – When substances that cannot

It will led the cells move randomly around to others. For this molecular movement‚ there are two results that might happen. Diffusion is one of them. Diffusion is the movement of molecules that between the high concentration and the low concentration

Using dialysis tubing to model diffusion of a cell membrane and investigating the influence of solute concentration on osmosis Purpose * Discover how dialysis tubing diffuses the cell membrane * Explore the effect of solute concentration on osmosis Background A cell membrane is a very significant function in the human body. In one sense‚ it is used as a barrier to keep the enzymes‚ DNA‚ and metabolic pathways that bundles everything together. Cell membranes are also used as a gateway
