    Diffusion is the movement of particles from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Because of the selective permeability of the membrane only water and other very small particles (iodine) can be diffused through simple diffusion. The solution out of the dialysis tubing had a higher distelled iodine concentration of solutes (iodine + H2O) than did the starch solution. So iodine move into the cell and react with starch molecules to formed starchiodine‚ the blue compound

    Sylvester Rimando Geography 2 September 19 2012 Cultural Diffusion: Sushi Sushi is one example of cultural diffusion in which went on to expand on a global scale from a native treat of Japan into an international delicacy. To scope out on how sushi became an international sensation‚ there are 4 factors that identify the chronicles of its origins and through an expansion of this treat internationally. These 4 factors are: the hearth (originating from) ‚

    The change theory that could work for this proposed programme would be Rogers’ theory of ‘Diffusion of innovation’ and Lewin’s (1951) ‘Force Field Analysis’ (FFA). Rogers’ theory of Diffusion of innovation is the process of innovation communicated with participants to create and share information with one another in order to reach an equal understanding over time (Rogers‚ 2010). Rogers’ (2010) theory involved events when the change agent seeks to persuade a client to adopt an innovation. In relation

    ABSTRACT The effect of molecular weight on the rate of diffusion was measured using two tests namely: the glass tube test and the agar-water test. The set-up of the glass tube test used two cotton balls of the same size. One cotton ball is moistened with hydrochloric acid (HCl) and the other one is moistened with ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH). The two cotton balls were inserted in both ends of the glass tube. NH4OH which has a lighter molecular weight (35.0459 g/mole) diffused with a faster rate (dave=20

    observers are more likely to take action if there are few or no other witnesses. Bystander effect has been a problem for a long time.

    solutes move via passive diffusion through the plasma membrane. Diffusion is a process where molecules move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. How quickly diffusion occurs is dependent on several factors‚ such as temperature‚ particle size‚ and the concentration difference on either side of the membrane. Testing the hypothesis relating to the effect of molecular weight to the diffusion rate‚ agar plate set-up was used to observe the diffusion of different substances
