Analysis During the experiment‚ a dialysis bag was used to mimic a cell membrane. Two ways why this model realistically represents a cell is because the dialysis bag is semi-permeable‚ like a cell. The bag was able to allow water in‚ as the size of the water molecule was small enough to be able to fit through the pores of the bag. Sucrose was not able to pass through as the molecules were too big to enter. This is similar to a cell because the size of a molecule can determine whether or not the

Active and passive transport are the ways in which cells allow things to move into and out of the cell through the cell membrane. They include many different ways to transport things. Passive transport requires no expenditure of energy by the cell. However‚ Active transport requires ATPs which have energy in order for it to move something through the cell membrane. There are different types of transport to suit the sizes of molecules as well. Passive transport includes diffusion‚ osmosis‚ and

The cell membrane is a semipermeable membrane made to separate the interior of the cell from the exterior and regulate the movement of substances in and out of the cell. Diffusion is how substances more in and out of the cell. There are several types of diffusion‚ but for the purposes of this lab‚ we will be focused on simple and osmosis. Simple diffusion and osmosis are vital for the diffusion of water and maintaining homeostasis. Homeostasis is the ability to maintain equilibrium and keep the organism

Clinical Journal Today‚ I made rounds with Angela Box‚ the hospitals certified wound and ostomy nurse. While she also takes care of wounds and ostomies‚ she also makes rounds for the anthesiologists on their PCA pumps and starts PICC lines. The most interesting thing I saw was a man who had a large abdominal wound and was being treated with a wound vac. He had acquired this wound as a result of and abscess caused by the mesh that was used to repair his abdominal hernia. Initially‚ when she

16‚ 2013 was Diffusion and Osmosis. Osmosis is a process in which the molecules of a solvent diffuse from an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration‚ through a semipermeable membrane. Small solute molecules and water molecules can move freely through a selectively permeable membrane‚ but large molecules may pass through more slowly‚ or not at all. During this experiment we measured the diffusion of small molecules through dialysis tubing. We used the I2K1 because it is small
