    The Technology-Diffusion Model illustrates how a social institution reacts to a new technology as follows: • “Innovative technology is created • Institution adopts technology to carry out existing functions more efficiently • Institution accommodates internally to take better advantage of new efficiencies • Institution develops new functions and activities made possible by capabilities of the technology • Institution may become obsolete‚ be replaced‚ or be radically transformed • Other institutions

    Diffusion and Osmosis lab Results: Figure 1a-rate of weight change in 15 min intervals of each concentration. The first tube showed very little weight change. However all other tubes show a greater change the concentration could be the factor that determines the permeability of the sucrose. The sucrose molecules are too large to pass through. Figure 1b- sucrose concentration determines the weight change. In this case based on our results as concentration increases the percent weight change

    Activity 1: Simple diffusion Introduction: Simple diffusion is the net movement of substances from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration so its overall net movement is along the concentration gradient‚ simple diffusion does not require energy therefore it is ’passive’‚ substances are diffused across the membrane between the phospholipids. Materials and methods: * 20 mwco dialysis membrane * 50 mwco dialysis membrane * 100 mwco dialysis membrane * 200 mwco

    Simple Diffusion Activity 1: Simulating Simple diffusion 1.What is the molecular weight of Na+? 22.9 2. What is the molecular weight of Cl-? 35.45 3. Which MWCO dialysis membranes allowed both of these ions through? 50‚ 100‚ and 200 4. Which materials diffused from the left beaker to the right beaker? Urea‚ NaCl and glucose diffused 5. Which did not? Why? Albumin‚ because the molecular weight exceeded the highest MWCO membrane‚ thus being to large to pass through

    Biology Lab #1: Chemical Diffusion Purpose To discover how the size of a cell affects the diffusion of chemicals throughout the cell. Hypothesis I predict that as the cell size increases the diffusion depth and the diffusion rate will decrease. Equipment • Eye protection • 250 mL beaker • Timing device • Scoopula • Ruler • Scalpel • Sodium hydroxide solution • 3 different sized cubes of phenolphthalein agar • Paper towels Purpose

    Lab # 2 Diffusion & Osmosis Introduction Kinetic energy‚ a root of energy stored in cells‚ causes molecules to hit into each other and move in new directions. Diffusion is the result of this contact. Diffusion is the random movement of molecules to an area of lower concentration from an area of higher concentration. Osmosis is a type of diffusion. This is the diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane from a region of higher water potential to a region of lower water

    Lipids and Phospholipids 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. The main role of phospholipids is that they can form lipid bilayers. It is an amphipathic molecule. The

    The effect of size on the effectiveness of diffusion Aim: To use agar blocks infused with 0.1 Molar sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and phenolphthalein to investigate the relationship between shape and surface area: volume ratio on the effectiveness of diffusion. Hypothesis: That for a cube of agar‚ the time taken for complete colourisation due to diffusion of HCl is directly proportional to the cubes volume. Materials: |A block of agar (10cm x 5cm x 3cm) with 0.1M NaOH and |1x 250mL

    Diffusion is the molecular net movement from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. For instance‚ when a person is smoking‚ the smoke diffuses into the air. The molecules in the smoke‚ released from the cigarette‚ travel through the air. Here is how it occurs. When molecules are close enough‚ they collide with each other‚ their kinetic energy changes. Due to the direct relationship between diffusion and molecular kinetic energy‚ the molecules move away from the point of the collision as
