Diffusion and Osmosis Diffusion -the process by which molecules spread from areas of high concentratiion‚ to areas of low concentration. When the molecules are even throughout a space - it is called EQUILIBRIUM DIFFUSION Concentration gradient - a difference between concentrations in a space. Molecules will always move down the concentration gradient‚ toward areas of lesser concentration. Think of food coloring that spreads out in a glass of water‚ or air freshener sprayed in a room

Part A: Diffusion on a liquid in a liquid. I did an experiment with three different glasses of tap water from the faucet. All three cups measured the same which happened to be 13 cm from the top of the cup to the bottom of the cup. I let the water settle‚ and sit for about an hour so the temperature was the same for all three cups. I then placed one drop of food coloring into the first glass and waited for the coloring to reach the bottom. I calculated 93 seconds. I then went to the second glass

Mr. Reeves Page 1 Cultural Diffusion in the Ancient World Throughout history‚ cultures have mixed all over the world‚ changing beliefs‚ creating new ones‚ and changing the way people look at the world along with their existence. This can be proven from anything from music to food‚ but is especially prevalent in world religion and the way that every culture sees their god‚ or gods‚ and how they think‚ worship‚ and even obey‚ in similar manners. Even though Hebrew conceptions differed from the rest

piece‚ and varying surface area could have a great effect on the rate of osmosis. This is because in an experiment where the potato chip has a large surface area‚ there is a larger area of partially permeable membrane and therefore more opportunity for water particles to pass through. I will keep the surface area the same by keeping the mass and length of the potato piece the same in each instance‚ by measuring and cutting it carefully. I am fairly sure that my results are reliable as they

Implementation My aim for this experiment was to find the effect of temperature on the membrane permeability of beetroot. Since I was unfamiliar with this experiment‚ I first conducted a preliminary test. I considered my preliminary test as my trial for this experiment. My Hypothesis for this experiment was to found out the amount of pigment loss of beetroot when exposed to varying temperatures. Betalain pigment found in beetroot My method for this experiment is:- * Use a cork borer to cut about

permeability of the cell membrane. Introduction Located within the vacuole of beetroot cells is a red pigment call Betalains. Typically these pigments are contained within the cell vacuole by the tonoplast (vacuole membrane)‚ however When beetroot is heated these red pigments escape the vacuole. This experiment aims to explore the effect of temperature on the permeability of the cell membranes (i.e. Tonoplast). ‘The cell surface membrane is the plasma membrane that surrounds cells and

8 themes of biology relating to the cell membrane Science as a process: Science is a process which encompasses many methods in order to reach a final conclusion. This relates to the cell membrane because it carries out many processes to reach a final product. For example‚ the cell membrane forms a barrier between the inside of the cell and the outside‚ so that the chemical environments on the two sides can be different. The cell controls those differences to optimize the working of the organelles

The plasma membrane is a fluid phospholipid bilayer. The outside of the bilayer is hydrophilic portions of porteins and phospholipids because they are exposed to water. This results in a stable membrane structure. Inside the bilayer hydrophobic portions of proteins and phospholipids because the inside of the bilayer is nonaqueous. the proteins bob in the fluid bilayer of phospholipids. The proteins also vary in structure and function. There are teh integral proteins; transmembrane
