Natalia Wierzchon A.P. Biology Lab: 1. Osmosis 09/10/2010 I. Introduction a. Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to observe the diffusion process of water‚ osmosis‚ as well as create an understanding of water potential‚ the basis of osmosis. The experiment proved how water molecules in a solution are able to move from an area of low solute concentration‚ high water concentration‚ to an area of high solute concentration‚ low water concentration‚ diffusing “down” the water gradient.

Abstract This research paper explores the aspects of Going Green. This research paper consists mainly of secondary data and references done through articles‚ Internet‚ and environmentally related published books. Going Green means a lifestyle change that is in balance with humanity and the earth. Going Green is essential to maintaining sustainability and conserving our natural resources for the future and our children’s future. It is predicated that the world’s population growth is expected

The effect of salt concentrations on the mass of the pear cubes ‘Pyrus’ after being soaked in water Aim: The effect of salt concentrations on the mass of the pear ‘Pyrus’ pieces shaped as cubes of 1cm. Background: Osmosis is the net movement of water molecules through a semi-permeable membrane from an area of higher water potential to an area of lower water potential. Water makes up to 70-90% of living cells and cell membranes are partially permeable membranes. Dissolved substances attract

traded in Africa. The trans-Saharan trade routes were a vast trade network that reached across the continent‚ on which diverse goods and resources were traded‚ and knowledge‚ ideas‚ and religion spread in a phenomenon known as cultural diffusion. Cultural diffusion that occurred along the trans-Saharan trade routes shaped the development of culture in medieval Africa. The trans-Saharan trade routes provided African people access to goods and resources that were not local to their

plant physiologist‚ Wilhelm Pfeffer. Ten years prior‚ Moritz Traube prepared the first recorded synthetic membrane that was made from a precipitated film of copper ferrocyanide. It was not until almost two hundred years later that the process of osmosis was revisited and extensively reviewed by researchers from the University of California at Los Angeles. In 1959‚ Sidney Loeb and Srinivasa Sourirajan developed a membrane made from cellulose acetate‚ which removed at least ninety percent of salts

Applying Diffusion of Innovations Theory November 14‚ 2010 COM 126 K. Vook Once innovation occurs‚ innovations may be spread from the innovator to other individuals and groups. In 1962‚ Everett Rogers proposed that the life cycle of innovations can be described using the “s-curve” or diffusion curve. The s-curve maps growth of revenue or productivity against time. In the early stage of a particular innovation‚ growth is relatively slow as the new product establishes itself. At some point

amount of sucrose concentrations. The higher molarity concentrations increased the movement of water to balance out the inside of the tube and the beaker. The greater amount of concentration gradient‚ in each tube‚ increased the rate of osmosis. This rate of osmosis is due to the net movement of water from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration. Because the tubes had different concentrations‚ certain tubes gained more mass than others. Solution A had 0.6 molarity which increased

similarities and differences between the diffusion of Buddhism from its origins to 1450 and the diffusion of Christianity from its origins to 1450. Be sure to discuss how each religion gained followers as it diffused. Diffusion of Buddhism and Christianity from their origins to 1450 share many similar traits such as a religious leader who later on helped to diffuse the religion‚ and that the religion was diffused by willing missionaries. Their diffusion differs in what they offered converts and

The quest to be the first is unending. The need to outdo one another is part of our competitive nature. While this state of mind is embraced‚ ultimately the interpersonal aspect of the diffusion of these innovative ideas helps in determining the sustainability and success.

The purpose of this lab was to observe how molarity concentration affects diffusion.The lab was primarily based on osmosis and diffusion. Diffusion is when the movement of molecules from a high concentration that go to a low concentration to a high concentration to eventually reach an equilibrium. Osmosis is when water will diffuse from high water concentration to low water concentration to reach equilibrium. When the solutions are different the lower concentration solute is hypotonic while the higher
