Osmosis is the selective diffusion of water and other molecules across membranes‚ which in the case of living organisms‚ the solvent (water) would have net movement across a selective permeable membrane. Osmosis only occurs when a membrane such as that of a cell is permeable to water molecules but not to specific solutes (Tortora & Derrickson 2014). Certain simple molecules such as oxygen‚ water and carbon dioxide can travel across the cell membrane by osmosis‚ a passive process similar to other

My First Lab Report: Diffusion and Osmosis To begin‚ this is my first time doing an experiment and a lab report for biology’s class. Although‚ it was a little hard at the beginning‚ my team and I got the hang of it and we finished it on time. It was actually kind of fun. There were three steps in the experiment: 3.1 A – Molecular Movement: In this session‚ I was observing a sample and determining if there was a movement or not. 3.1B –Diffusion through semi-permeable membrane dialysis tube: In this

Anjali Patel Riley Egan‚ Nick Morrison 10/2/13 Block 2 LAB REPORT OUTLINE FOR DIFFUSION/OSMOSIS LAB Introduction: Diffusion is the net movement of small or uncharged molecules or substances from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration. There is simple diffusion‚ as explained‚ and facilitated diffusion. Facilitated diffusion‚ on the other hand‚ involves larger or charged molecules or substances that need a protein tunnel through the membrane to help the substance enter and

Introduction: The purpose of this lab was to observe passive transport of molecules through diffusion and osmosis. We had to keep close observation on two dialysis bags and explain how we measured the change in weight as diffusion and osmosis occurred throughout the experiment. Cells produce an energy called Kinetic Energy. This causes molecules of the cell to move around and bump into each other. Diffusion is one result of this molecular movement. Diffusion is the passive movement of molecules

Title: Potato Osmosis Abstract: In this experiment was designed to study the effect of a concentrated solution applied to white and sweet potatoes. The solution’s impact among the potatoes were to be either hypertonic‚ hypotonic‚ or isotonic. The potatoes were first cut into fries with a fry cutter‚ and then weighed after being cut. The white and sweet potatoes’ weights ranged from .005-.015 grams. A total of 18 sugar solutions are to be made over the course of 3 trials. In each trial‚ 6 different

an ostrich egg is the largest of all eggs‚ it is the smallest egg in relation to the size of the bird. * The Ostrich egg will weigh 1600 gm and is equivalent to 2 dozen chicken eggs. * An Ostrich Hen can lay 40 -100 eggs per year‚ averaging about 60 eggs per year. * Ostrich eggs hatch in 42 days. * An Ostrich chick grows one foot taller each month until it is 7-8 months old. * Females sit on eggs by day; males sit on eggs by night. * To soft boil a fresh egg would take

our egg drop project were momentum and energy. In the project‚ we saw how momentum increases as a normal egg without anything to slow it down would crack. That was because the longer that the egg fell‚ the more momentum the egg gains. We also saw that by adding resistance during the fall‚ such as a plastic bag “parachute”‚ would slow down the egg enough so that it would not crack when it reached impact with the ground. The other concept that was discussed was energy. We saw that before the egg is

This capsule that I made was not what I was thinking at first but when I started to build it‚ I saw that this capsule would hold better than the one that I was thinking which was a triangular capsule with the egg in the middle but I saw later one that the egg would break if it hit one of the flat sides. The capsule is a cube that is made out

it’s because the straws has many collapsing points. This would help sustain in the eggs inside. III. Materials * Sponge * Straws * Plastic tape * Duct tape * Yarn strings * 2 Eggs IV. Procedure 1. Dig two small holes in the sponge to put the eggs. 2. Put an egg in each hole and then the sponges left to make the hole on top of the egg. 3. Duct tape the hole to seal the eggs. 4. Tape the straws in each vertical and horizontal sides of the sponge.
