The cell membrane regulates and controls what kind of molecules ______ move in & out of the cell. 2. When molecules spread from an area of high to low concentration‚ it is called _Diffusion_____. 3. As molecules diffuse‚ they create a _concentration gradient_____

Lab 3 – Homework 1. Purpose of today’s experiment: To determine the effect osmotic pressure might have on cellular membranes‚ specifically when beet slices are placed in NaCl solutions of varying concentrations. 2. Hypothesis: The osmolarity will directly increase with increasing NaCl concentrations. 3. Control = Distilled Water – this was present in all solutions 4. The independent variable – salinity of the 6 solutions; while predetermined‚ the NaCl concentrations varied from 0% to 15%.

Sugar Cane Diffusion The advantages of diffusion The advantages of diffusion over conventional milling have been confimed by the performances of DE SMET diffusers in industrial operation. De Smet diffusers have processed several million tons of cane in different countries and proved their : √ √ √ √ √ √ Simplicity Efficiency Low maintenance costs Low operation costs Mechanical reliability Adaptation to changes in capacity. Types of De Smet diffusers De Smet supplies two types of diffusers : √

selectively permeable membrane through a process of diffusion. The movement of a solute through this membrane is called dialysis . Diffusion is a form of passive transport. It is the movement of molecules from areas of higher concentration to those of lower concentration‚ until there is an even concentration. This movement is random because it is a result of kinetic energy. Diffusion is a slow process‚ but there are many factors that will affect it’s rate. The rate of diffusion will vary depending

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) ‚

How does diffusion affect the rate of growth? If I placed a gummy bear in various solutions‚ then the gummy bear would change in size‚ because diffusion and osmosis cause the gummy bear to react to the solution’s molecules‚ and further affects the gummy bear’s mass. An experimental lab conducted in class was tested‚ essentially to observe the effects of diffusion/osmosis. More specifically‚ according to‚ “merriam-webster.com/dictionary/diffusion‚” the process of diffusion causes particles to spread

Diffusion of responsibility is a pervasive socio-psychological phenomenon that is deeply entrenched in all societies. This tends to occur when the size of a group reaches a certain threshold and individuals within the group assume that others will take action or have already intervened‚ commonly resulting in the collective inaction by potential helpers. Another contributing factor is the gender of the individual in need for help which affects the action/inaction of the individuals in the group. The

with kidney disease each year‚ and some individuals face a difficult situation concerning the possibility of doing dialysis‚ and choosing what type of dialysis treatment is right for the individual. Both Hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis give patients the quality of life. In contrast both procedures are done differently‚ Hemodialysis patients are dependent‚ and peritoneal dialysis patients are self-sufficient. In comparison both removes waste from the bloodstream; however‚ both procedures are beneficial

Phospholipids receive and transmit signals across the cell membrane and act as a store room for energy. The main role of phospholipids is that they can form lipid bilayers. It is an amphipathic molecule. The head which is hydrophilic contains a group of phosphate‚ a diglyceride and a simple molecule e.g. choline. The tail is hydrophobic and is made up of fatty acids. Phospholipids receive and transmit signals across the cell membrane and act as a store room for energy. Fatty acids Fatty acids
