Wierzchon A.P. Biology Lab: 1. Osmosis 09/10/2010 I. Introduction a. Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to observe the diffusion process of water‚ osmosis‚ as well as create an understanding of water potential‚ the basis of osmosis. The experiment proved how water molecules in a solution are able to move from an area of low solute concentration‚ high water concentration‚ to an area of high solute concentration‚ low water concentration‚ diffusing “down” the water gradient. The movement of

Making mashed potatoes from scratch Are people always buying boxed or premade mashed potatoes because making them homemade is too hard? This is the discovery that it’s not that hard to create a very tasty homemade mashed potatoes. Of course it takes a little more work than dumping a package into a pot or microwaving something from the freezer. However‚ the cook will prepare homemade mashed potatoes and have the satisfaction of knowing they were made from scratch. Preparing mashed

Osmosis/Plasmolysis Lab Name: Problem: How do solutions of various salt concentrations influence osmosis in relation to an onion cell? Materials: (per student group): red onion epidermis forceps‚ dropper distilled water NaCl solution paper towels microscope slide cover slip Procedure 1. Make a wet mount of the red onion epidermis. 2. Examine under low power. When you have a clear view of several cells‚ switch to high power. Make a labeled drawing

Practical 7 Osmosis Name: Diana Baktybayeva Tutorial Group: D Lab Partner: Nurlan Mukazhanov Day: Monday afternoon Date: 17.11.14 Title: Osmosis Introduction. Osmosis is a particular type of passive transport involving the movement of water molecules from the region of low solute concentration to the region of high solute concentration through semi permeable membrane‚ which allows movement of solvent molecules‚ but not solute. The main principle of osmosis is to equalize

is submersed in a high concentration of saline solution it will create a hypertonic environment and therefore cause the cell to rupture due to the process of osmosis. The methods used to collect data were observation and note taking. Overall the results proved the hypothesis correct with major findings being a higher concentration of salt causing a hypotonic environment and a low concentration. Recommendations included major changes to the materials and method which would allow quantities data to

Osmosis is the selective diffusion of water and other molecules across membranes‚ which in the case of living organisms‚ the solvent (water) would have net movement across a selective permeable membrane. Osmosis only occurs when a membrane such as that of a cell is permeable to water molecules but not to specific solutes (Tortora & Derrickson 2014). Certain simple molecules such as oxygen‚ water and carbon dioxide can travel across the cell membrane by osmosis‚ a passive process similar to other

Experiment #7: Acids‚ Bases and Salts Mabag‚ Viannery D.‚ Mangune‚ Paolo D. Chem 14.1‚ MAB1‚ Ms. Angelyn del Rosario March 8‚ 2010 I. Abstract The experiment allowed students to explore different electrolytes and classify them into acids‚ bases and salts by using different indicators or by measuring the pH levels of each. The experiment also helped students classify different substances through their conductivity properties. The preparation of a 1 M stock solution from NaOH pellets diluted to a

Introduction Regulating the water in living organisms is very important. Throughout the body‚ water transports nutrients and removes excretory products. The human’s total body weight is about sixty to seventy percent water (age‚ gender and weight can be a factor in this statistic along with many others). Furthermore‚ water is very crucial to living organisms‚ because it maintains the body temperature and metabolizes body fat. If your body doesn’t receive enough water‚ it will take water from other areas and

Aim: To investigate how the concentration affects the rate of diffusion of hydrochloric acid through agar blocks Research Question: To determine how will different concentrations (0.1M‚ 0.2M‚ 0.3M‚ 0.4M‚ 0.5M) of hydrochloric acid affect the rate of diffusion of sodium chloride through agar blocks?

known as common salt. It is important because it is essential to the health of human beings and of animals. for domestic use it is fined down to what is known as table-salt‚ and small quantities of other chemicals are added to it to keep it free-flowing when in contact with the atmosphere. Salt and potassium are combined to produce iodised salt‚ used when iodine is lacking in diet. It’s absence cause goitre‚ the swelling of the thyroid gland.
