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

ADI Lab Report Every living thing is made up of cells. All cells have some part in common. Some multicellular cells are highly specialized and carry out some very important functions. One of the special cells are red blood cells‚ their functions‚ transporting oxygen from the lungs to the cells in the body. Red blood cells look like little discs. Red blood cells can change their shape‚ this ability allowing them to squeeze through capillaries without breaking. Our task is to Design and carry out an
