IB HL BIOLOGY Dialysis Lab: Exploring Osmosis and Diffusion Through A Membrane Introduction: Dialysis is the flow of certain solutes through a semi permeable membrane. Dialysis is usually used on patients with failing kidneys to clinically purify blood in their kidneys‚ or other regions of their bodies. The dialysate contains waste matter that flows from the blood our of the dialysis tubing. Question/aim of lab: To test the solutions inside and outside the dialysis tubing with Benedict’s

The Effect of Different Types of Insulation on Heat Retention Aim I am going to investigate the effect of different types of material on heat retention. "Which of the four materials‚ cotton‚ foam‚ aluminium foil and bubble wrap‚ is the best insulator?" Hypothesis The four materials tested in this experiment are cotton‚ foam‚ aluminium foil‚ and bubble wrap. Materials that are good insulators will absorb heat slowly and therefore the water inside the cup will stay warm for

Court System Structure‚ Function and Jurisdiction Performance Assessment Task 4 Kelly Schoepke Introduction to Criminal Justice Phil Schmidt November 6‚ 2009 Over the years the U.S. court system has evolved into an intricately balanced legal process (Siegel‚ 354). The founding fathers of the nation considered an independent federal judiciary essential to ensure fairness and equal justice for all citizens of the United States. The American judicial system is made up of two separate court

Membrane Functions: Aim: To demonstrate the process of osmosis using a chicken’s egg Hypothesis: I predict that the egg’s mass after 10 min. in the 5% salt solution would increase due to and balancing out the solution. In the 10% salt solution‚ the egg’s mass would decrease since there is a high amount of salt. In the dilute water solution‚ the egg’s mass will increase‚ as the membrane would take in that water. Materials: 1- One fresh egg 2- One plastic spoon 3- One plastic fork

Differentiating Between Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells‚ Distinguish Among Plant‚ Animal‚ and Protist Cells‚ and Identifying the Organelles that are Evident in Them Introduction There are two different types of cells‚ prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Prokaryotes‚ such as bacteria‚ lack a nuclear membrane and other membrane bound organelles. Their genetic material consists of a single molecule of singular DNA. Eukaryotes‚ such as plant and animal cells‚ have a nuclear membrane and other membrane bound
