Chapter 6 DIFFUSION IN SOLIDS • How does diffusion occur? • Why is it an important part of processing? • How can the rate of diffusion be predicted for some simple cases? • How does diffusion depend on structure and temperature? Driving force for movement In general‚ force is a position derivative of energy (F = - dE/dr). In other words‚ if there is any energy difference in space‚ there is a force which will act on matters - Force will move things. (ex1) Potential energy by gravity:

there are structures called ascospores. It is these structures‚ ascospores‚ where genetic variation that arises from crossing over is easily seen (Davidson). The organism Sordaria Fimicola is a good example of this process because it is easy to grow on agar plates and because they are easy to be seen when looked at through a microscope (Davidson). There are three strands of Sordaria Fimicola used in this experiment; all were retrieved from an area known as the Evolution Canyon. The Evolution Canyon has

Immediately after‚ we inserted the sample on a nutrient agar dish. Finally‚ we incubated the samples for approximately 2

Activity One “Simulating Simple Diffusion” Activity Two “Simulating Facilitated Diffusion” Jessica Ogola Anatomy and Physiology 2401 Dr. Denyse Jones 02/02/2012 Objective: The objective of this experiment is to perform the simulation of the movement of solutes from a higher concentration to a lower concentration within a given amount of time. The goal of the exercise is to provide a simulation for the process of the facilitated diffusion of glucose through a selectively permeable

moved from one organism to another with the use of pGlo plasmids. It was hypothesized that if bacteria that were transformed with +pGlo plasmids are given the gene for GFP‚ then transformed cell colonies will be located on the LB/amp/ara and LB/amp agar plates. Cells that have been transformed with +pGlo plasmids have the ability to grow in ampicillin plates‚ and the arabinose sugar allows the colonies to be visibly fluorescent under ultraviolet light. The GFP is able to resist ampicillin because

conditions‚ the pyruvate is converted into lactic acid. Diffusion After viewing the animation‚ answer these questions. 1. Molecules dissolved in a solution are in constant random motion due to their kinectic energy. 2. One result of this motion is dissolved molecules become evenly distributed throughout the solution . 3. This tendency of molecules to spread out is an example of diffusion . 4. Even as a solid lump‚ the individual sugar

Abstract Introduction An antimicrobial is a substance that kills or inhibits the growth of microorganisms such as bacteria‚ fungi‚ or protozoans (Antimicrobial). Antimicrobial drugs either kill microbes or prevent the growth of microbes. Disinfectants are antimicrobial substances used on non-living objects or outside the body. Ginger Figure 1 : Ginger (Studies Reveal Ginger Lowers Colon Cancer Risk) Ginger is commonly used around the world and has been employed in the treatment‚ cure‚ and

Cell Transport Mechanisms and Permeability Activity 1: Simulating Dialysis (Simple Diffusion) • Describe two variables that affect the rate of diffusion: Two variables that affect the rate of diffusion are size and concentration gradient. The molecular size vs the MWCO size of the membrane can either increase‚ decrease‚ or prevent diffusion. The greater the concentration gradient the greater the diffusion rate due to molecules moving from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration

Activity 1 1. Describe two variables that affect the rate of diffusion. a. There are alot of different variables or factors that can affect the rate of diffusion‚ for example: size of the molecule‚ shape of the molecule‚ concentration gradient‚ charge of the ions‚ temperature‚ environment‚ etc. The rate of the diffusion can increase as diffusion distance increases‚ concentration gradient increases‚ surface area increases‚ temperature increases‚ and many more. 2. Why do you think the urea was not

OBJECTIVE: 1. To distinguish the bacteria abilities to metabolize various substrates and end products formed. 2. To observe the growth of different bacteria species in term of structures and its morphology based on different chemical substance applied. 3. To observe physiological and immunological properties utilized by different species of bacteria. INTRODUCTION: Bacteria biochemical testing can determine the types and numbers in terms of colony forming units of bacteria present in a
