Diffusion of Hydrochloric Acid into Different Sizes of Agar Blocks Aim: Investigating the relationship between the diffusion and the surface area to volume ratio‚ with agar and hydrochloric acid. Research Question: How does the difference in surface area to volume ratio affect the diffusion? Hypothesis: As the area to volume ratio increases‚ the time taken for a complete diffusion will also increase. Background Information: Agar is a jelly like substance and in this experiment‚ agar

TRANSPIRATION DESIGN LAB Transpiration is the process through which water is lost from a plant. Water is taken into a plant through roots and root hairs by osmosis‚ and it exits the plant through stomata. Transpiration helps the diffusion of both O2 and CO2 plus it helps the movement of water throughout the plant. There are some factors that affect the rate of transpiration of the plant. Those factors are mainly humidity‚ soil water supply‚ sunlight‚ temperature and wind. Any alteration

There are not any real safety concerns for this lab other than making sure correct use and care of the microscope is used.

ORGANIC MATTER AND INORGANIC MATTE Organic matter is that which is living or has been alive‚ e.g. wood or coal. Inorganic matter is that which is not living and never has been alive‚ e.g. water or iron. Inorganic substances can be built up into organic compounds by living organisms. All living matter is made up of small units called cells. Some organisms‚ such as bacteria‚ consist of one single cell; others‚ like human beings‚ consist of many hundreds of millions of cells‚ all functioning together

OSMOSIS LAB BACKGROUND INFORMATION. Dialysis tubing is being used to model a plasma membrane. Isotonic solutions are solutions that have the same concentration of solutes on both sides of the membrane. Hypertonic solutions are solutions that have more solute to the one with less solute. Hypotonic solution are solutions that have less solute to the one with more solute. RESEARCH QUESTION:which dialysis tubing will gain the distilled water and which one will loss its content

ACTIVITY 1 Simulating Dialysis (Simple Diffusion) 1. Describe two variables that affect the rate of diffusion. __The size and the concentration. ___ 2. Why do you think the urea was not able to diffuse through the 20 MWCO membrane? How well did the results compare with your prediction? __ The molecules were to large to go through. My results matched._ 3. Describe the results of the attempts to diffuse glucose and albumin through the 200 MWCO membrane. How well did the results compare with your

Dissection lab In the past 3 weeks we have been dissecting animals of all different sorts. We dissected a worm‚ crayfish‚ grasshopper‚ and a perch (fish). In my conclusion I will explain the diet‚ habitat‚ and how these relate to the structure of these animals. First I am going to be talking about the worm. The Earthworms have setae in groups around or under their body. The setae‚ paired in groups on each segment‚ can be moved in and out to grip the ground or the walls of a burrow. Worms travel

of the different properties chlorophylls possess and the need to test them individually to receive the most accurate results. Preparation for the lab began with selecting a medium to large spinach leaf and deveining it. Once the spinach was prepared‚ it was ground in 5 mL of 100% acetone‚ creating a green acetone extract. The extract was filtered through a funnel with a kimwipe and into a test tube. The volume of the filtered extract was estimated‚ and one half of the estimated volume of petroleum

In this lab we are going to be observing the decomposition of piglets over a month’s time. There are theory questions that have been given to us before and after the lab. We look back at our original theory to see where we went wrong‚ and then correct it. The lab was disgusting‚ surprising‚ and very interesting. The first questioned to be answered is which piglet decomposes faster‚ a piglet that is in its natural state‚ that is burnt‚ that is buried‚ and that is buried in a wooden box? With
