    Lab report OSMOSIS TROUGH A SELECTIVELY PERMEABLE MEMBRANE Introduction: Molecules have kinetic energy.  This causes the molecules of the cell to move around and bump into each other. Osmosis is a special kind of diffusion where water moves through a selectively permeable membrane (a membrane that only allows certain molecules to diffuse though).  Diffusion or osmosis occurs until dynamic equilibrium has been reached.  This is the point where the concentrations in both areas are equal and no

    The Action Potential An action potential‚ also called a spike‚ nerve impulse‚ and discharge‚ is the rapid reversal of charge of the cell membrane. These changes in charge occur within milliseconds‚ meaning the action potential travels very quickly down the axon in order to convey information over long distances. This transfer of information occurs within six phases and requires the presence of multiple pumps and channels embedded in the membrane to control ion concentration. Phase 1: The Resting

    THE ORGANELLES OF EUKARYOTIC CELLS . The difference between Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells is organelles‚ membrane enclosed structures that perform specific duties. The most important of all is the “nucleus‚” this holds the DNA and is surrounded by a double membrane. The Prokaryotic lacks a nucleus which is not partitioned from the other cells by membranes. The region between the nucleus and plasma membrane is called cytoplasm and in the Eukaryotic cell it consists of various organelles
