Salem 17/1/2011 Section 3 The process of Natural Importance Introduction Osmosis is when a fluid passes threw a semi permeable membrane. Moving from an area in which a solute such as salt is present in low concentrations to an area in which the solute is present in high concentrations. There are three types of osmosis: hypertonic is when there is high concentration and the cell has no water inside it (shrunk)‚ hypotonic is when there is low concentration and the cell has swelled up or in other

Osmosis Rates in Artificial Cells Daniel George Department of Biology Grand Valley State University 1 Campus Drive Allendale‚ MI 49401 georged@mail.gvsu.edu Abstract The lab for this paper was conducted for the topic of osmosis‚ the movement of water from high to low concentration. Five artificial cells were created‚ each being filled with different concentrated solutions of sucrose. These artificial cells were placed in hypertonic‚ hypotonic‚ or isotonic solutions for a period of 90

Based on the prompt above‚ “You are going to test your body’s ability to maintain homeostasis. You will test this by monitoring a person in your group’s breathing rate‚ heart rate‚ and qualitative observations” we devised a hypothesis which states that if a person exercises‚ his/her heart rate‚ breathing rate and sweat (qualitative observation) will increase in order for our bodies to maintain homeostasis and control our bodily functions. Based on our experiment we found that in Trial 1 the heart

the presence of sugar at room temperature or in an incubator? | -Observing Cellular respiration in yeast cells. | Yeast Lab Background Information: Yeast is a tiny unicellular fungus that obtains energy from outside sources (a heterotroph) mostly sugars in order to grow and reproduce. Yeast is often used in bread dough to make the dough rise. With the presence of oxygen a yeast cell creates energy by performing cellular respiration and producing a high amount of ATP‚ but when in bread

BIOLOGY LAB REPORT (UNIT 7: ENZYMES) GENERAL Enzymes are protein that acts as catalyst‚ lowering the activation energy need for reactions to progress in cells. The reaction can still occur without the presence of the enzyme‚ but at a much slower rate. The activation energy is the minimum amount of energy need for a chemical reaction to occur‚ yielding from a given set of reactants. In enzymatic reactions‚ we have substrates which are reactants of reaction bound to an enzyme. While an active site

membrane moves from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. In this lab‚ we can determine the direction of diffusion of small molecules by measuring the diffusion of small molecules through dialysis tubing. This tubing acts as a selectively permeable membrane‚ and allow to pass larger molecules slowly. Introduction: Cells have kinetic energy and it causes the molecules of the cell to move around and bump into each other. Diffusion is one result of this molecular movement

Fly Lab Shannon Ladd Introduction: Famers and herders have been selectively breeding their plans and animals to produce more useful hybrids for thousands of years. It was somewhat of a hit or miss process since the actual mechanisms governing inheritance were unknown. Knowledge of these genetic mechanisms finally came as a result of careful laboratory breeding experiments carried out over the last century and a half. A contributing geneticist named Gregor Mendel (1822-1884)‚ discovered through
