    Gorjon Mrs. B Anatomy & Physiology 168 March 14‚ 2014 Diffusion across a Selectively Permeable membrane Introduction: Diffusion is movement of molecules from one area of concentration to another. This process is vital for the life functions of cells. Cells have selectively permeable membranes that allow only certain solutions to pass through them. Osmosis is a special kind of diffusion that allows water to go through semi-permeable membranes of high water potential to a region of lower water potential

    Name: Marion Paxton Diffusion Lab Introduction: In this lab you will observe the diffusion of a substance across a semi permeable membrane. Iodine is a known indicator for starch. An indicator is a substance that chances color in the presence of the substance it indicates. Watch as your teacher demonstrates how iodine changes in the presence of starch. **Prelab Observations: Describe what happened when iodine came into contact with starch. The cornstarch turned blue-black Procedure:

    Diffusion through a Membrane Introduction Molecules are constantly moving. They move in straight lines unless they are deflected by other molecules or obstacles in their environment. Diffusion is the process by which the collisions between molecules cause them to continually spread apart from each other. Their movement can be described as movement from an area of greater concentration to an area of lower concentration. Diffusion continues until the molecules are equally distributed

    Title: Diffusion throughout the membranes Lab Partner(s): Alexis Clouting Date: 2/15/15 Abstract: In the content of the Module 2 we learned about Diffusion across cell membranes. We touched on the different types of cells and their functions. How things are transported in and out of cells. Learning about isotonic‚ hypertonic and even hypotonic solution. This is not my first time touching on this subject in my nursing career and I learned a way to remember what happens in the different solutions

    Lab report OSMOSIS TROUGH A SELECTIVELY PERMEABLE MEMBRANE Introduction: Molecules have kinetic energy.  This causes the molecules of the cell to move around and bump into each other. Osmosis is a special kind of diffusion where water moves through a selectively permeable membrane (a membrane that only allows certain molecules to diffuse though).  Diffusion or osmosis occurs until dynamic equilibrium has been reached.  This is the point where the concentrations in both areas are equal and no

    Determining the Rate of Osmosis through a Semi-Permeable Membrane Schneider‚ Justin* Sec 16 and Thomas Hudson Introduction Water is the principle solvent in cells. There are three conditions that a cell may be subjected to in the cells physical environment. The cells may be isotonic‚ hypotonic‚ and hypertonic. Isotonic is when the cell and is environment have equal concentrations of solutes. Therefore cells in an isotonic solution do not experience osmosis. When the cell is hypotonic it

    1 Diffusion is the movement of molecules (or ions) from a high concentration to low concentration. Diffusion is form of passive transport as energy does not need to be generated. Diffusion is complete when the concentration of molecules is equal on either side of the membrane. Diffusion rate can be influenced by many factors such as: Concentration gradient across the the membrane. Permeability of the membrane to the diffusing substance. Temperature. Surface area of the membrane. Question 2 2.1

    Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to test the effects of osmosis on eggs in hypertonic solutions and hypotonic solutions. Hypothesis: If the corn syrup is a hypertonic solution‚ then the egg’s size will shrink. If the water is a hypotonic solution‚ then the egg will swell. Materials: Styrofoam cups (2 per group) Styrofoam cups to weigh down egg (2) Balance Paper towels Vinegar (enough to cover egg) Distilled water Corn syrup Fresh eggs (2 per group) Procedure: Day

    Plasma membranes are selectively permeable. The purpose of this experiment is to reveal how a form of diffusion in a semipermeable membrane works by creating a real life simulation of a semipermeable plasma membrane. This is done by building an imitation of a caterpillar’s digestive tract using dialysis tubing and glassware. The first material in this experiment is a small beaker representing the head and crop of the caterpillar. This beaker is filled with both starch and the enzyme α-amylase. This
