permeable. This means that it determines what may enter and exit the cell(GT Biology Notes 09). When there are two different concentrations‚ a concentration gradient exists. When things move from a higher concentration to a lower concentration‚ it is known as diffusion. As long as diffusion is permitted to go on‚ equilibrium will be reached. Equilibrium is when two areas have reached equal concentration levels. The egg in this lab will have water and substances diffusing though it in and out. The direction

Describe two variables that affect the rate of diffusion. Size of material and concentration 2. Why do you think the urea was not able to diffuse through the 20 MWCO membrane? How well did the results compare with your prediction? The molecules were too large to pass through. This is what I predicted

Purpose: To see the effects of tonicity’s on potato cells. Background: Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a differentially permeable membrane due to concentration differences. Tonicity is the concentration of solutes. The potato cell has 3% of dissolved materials. Hypertonic is when the solution has more dissolved materials outside the cell than inside. The cell will lose water this way and shrink. The potatoes in the 5% salt solution will shrink. Hypotonic is when there is less solute dissolved

Diffusion is one of several transport phenomena that occur in nature. A distinguishing feature of diffusion is that it results in mixing or mass transport without requiring bulk motion. Thus‚ diffusion should not be confused with convection or advection‚ which are other transport mechanisms that use bulk motion to move particles from one place to another. In Latin‚ "diffundere" means "to spread out". There are two ways to introduce the notion of diffusion: either a phenomenological approach starting

A summary of Diffusion of Innovations Les Robinson Fully revised and rewritten Jan 2009 Diffusion of Innovations seeks to explain how innovations are taken up in a population. An innovation is an idea‚ behaviour‚ or object that is perceived as new by its audience. Diffusion of Innovations offers three valuable insights into the process of social change: - What qualities make an innovation spread successfully. - The importance of peer-peer conversations and peer networks.

Osmosis in Plants Outline: To investigate the effect of varying concentration of a certain sugar solution on the amount of osmotic activity between the solution and a potato chip of a given size. Definition - Osmosis: Movement of a solvent (liquid) through a semi-permeable membrane separating solutions of different concentrations. The solvent passes from a less concentrated solution to a more concentrated solution until the two concentrations are equal. All

Scientific Paper on Diffusion 2 ABSTRACT The effect of molecular weight on the rate of diffusion was assessed using two tests: the glass tube test and the agar-water gel test. In the glass tube set-up‚ two cotton plugs soaked in two different substances (HCl and NH4OH) were inserted into the two ends of the glass tube. The substance with the lighter molecular weight value (NH4OH‚ M = 35.0459 g/mole) diffused at a faster rate (dAve = 25.8cm)‚ resulting in the formation of a white ring around the

Lab 5 – Weather and Climate Change Lab 5 - Demonstration 1: Modeling the Water Cycle POST LAB QUESTIONS 1. Which water cycle processes are represented in this model and by what components? Answer = Condensation and evaporation are represented in the model. Condensation formed inside the jar and under the lid and the warm water evaporated. 2. Which processes are not represented? How could the model be altered to include these processes? Answer = Precipitation and infiltration did not get represented

In a flowering plant‚ the water travels from the soil‚ then to the root hairs‚ next to the xylem‚ then into the stomata‚ to the mesophyll cells‚ next to the stoma‚ then finally into the atmosphere. Osmosis is the diffusion of water through semipermeable membranes. Transpiration is the evaporation of water from the leaf. Cohesion is when water molecules stick together. Adhesion is when water molecules stick to‚ not attract. Root pressure is force made by root
