of the cell. An important part of regulating this is passive transport. Passive transport is the movement of materials through membranes without any input of energy. One type of passive transport is diffusion. Passive transport is the diffusion of substances across a membrane. In diffusion‚ molecules will usually move from where the substance is more concentrated to where it is less concentrated. The molecules also tend to spread out in the space they enter just like food coloring in water

I. Research Question What are the effects of different sucrose concentrations on potato stripes which have been submerged in a range of solute sucrose concentrations. II. Background Information Osmosis is one of the four methods of moving particles across membranes along with simple diffusion‚ facilitated diffusion‚ and active transport. Water is able to move in and out of most cells freely. Sometimes the number of water molecules moving in and out is the same and there is no net movement‚ but at

Diffusion is the process by which a particular phenomenon --- such as a contagious disease‚ a technological innovation or even an idea --- is spread from person to person over a period of space and time. One method of diffusion is known as expansion diffusion‚ which is broken down into three distinct types. Expansion Diffusion * Strictly defined‚ expansion diffusion is the process of spreading something from one place to another in an ever-expanding "snowballing" process. Expansion diffusion

this experiment diffusion and osmosis is the main idea. When using diffusion and osmosis you are trying to separate different solute concentrations on either side of the membrane. Only a solute’s relative concentration‚ or water potential‚ affects the rate of osmosis. The higher the concentration of solutes‚ the faster water will flow through the membrane to equalize the concentration. The way we describe the movement from higher to lower concentration or lower to higher concentration is called hypotonic

The Effect of Different Molar Mass on the Diffusion on Substances Lunar-maius A. Gaerlan Group 2 Sec. X – 9l August 15‚ 2012 ABSTRACT The effect of molecular weight on the rate of diffusion was assessed using agar-water gel test. The agar-water gel set up was composed of a petri dish of agar-water gel containing three wells. Drops of potassium permanganate (KMnO4)‚ potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7) and methylene blue(C16H18N3SCl) were simultaneously introduced to each well. Methylene blue
