     crossing  the  plasma  membrane?  Explain  why.    Large polar molecules and ions cannot cross plasma membranes easily‚ because the inner hydrophobic section of the membrane impedes the movement of these molecules.   2. What does  the  term  concentration  gradient  mean?  Concentration that exists between two different areas    3. A  solution  of  1M  glucose  is  separated  by  a  selectively  permeable  membrane  from  a  solution

    Introduction: There are two main types of passive transport; diffusion and filtration (Marieb 68). In this experiment the focus is the importance of diffusion‚ the random movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration. Osmosis is a special kind of diffusion where water moves through a selectively permeable membrane (a membrane that only allows certain molecules to diffuse). Diffusion or osmosis occurs until dynamic equilibrium is reached‚ or has been reached

In what way is an organism a protected compartment? Organisms have many layers of cells and material (such as skin) that protect them from the environment. The also arare selectively permeable in determining what they eat. 3.) What is the significance of a membranes being selectively permeable? It allows the cells to control its

    Diffusion‚ Osmosis and Active Transport Substances will move through the membrane by diffusion. This is the random spreading out of particles until they are even. For example‚ when you put your instant coffee in boiling water‚ the coffee particles spread out and fill the entire mug‚ this is diffusion. A second way that substances can move through the cell membrane is by osmosis. This is a special type of diffusion where water moves from a high to a low concentration through a ’partially permeable

    “Simulating Simple Diffusion” Activity Two “Simulating Facilitated Diffusion” Jessica Ogola Anatomy and Physiology 2401 Dr. Denyse Jones 02/02/2012 Objective: The objective of this experiment is to perform the simulation of the movement of solutes from a higher concentration to a lower concentration within a given amount of time. The goal of the exercise is to provide a simulation for the process of the facilitated diffusion of glucose through a selectively permeable membrane. Introduction:

    Diffusion & Osmosis: Introduction: This experiment was performed to demonstrate the process of osmosis and to show visible as well as quantitative evidence proving that osmosis occurred. Through the tasks of determining the percent concentrations in two different solutions‚ we were studying the process of osmosis. Osmosis is the best way to perform this experiment because as we went through the experiment‚ the weight of the beaker/dialysis tubing changed and the only logical explanation was

    concentrations of the substances involved. Diffusion is the passage of solute molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration (Campbell & Reece‚ 2005). An example is ammonia diffusing throughout a room. A solute is one of two components in a chemical solution. The solute is the substance dissolved in the solution. The solvent‚ the other component‚ is any liquid in which the solute can be dissolved (Anderson‚ 2002). Diffusion requires little or no energy because molecules

    through a selectively permeable membrane moves from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. In this lab‚ we can determine the direction of diffusion of small molecules by measuring the diffusion of small molecules through dialysis tubing. This tubing acts as a selectively permeable membrane‚ and allow to pass larger molecules slowly. Introduction: Cells have kinetic energy and it causes the molecules of the cell to move around and bump into each other. Diffusion is one
