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

Aim: This experiment aims to determine what effect an increase in the surrounding temperature has on the plasma membrane of a typical plant cell structure. Hypothesis: An increase in temperature will damage and denature the plasma membrane and cause the cytoplasm and other substances contained within the membrane to leak out. Introduction: The purpose of a cell membrane is to control the transport of substances moving into and out of a cell. The membrane is an extremely thin layer (8 to 10 manometers

In this laboratory experiment is stating that organic lipids have the ability to dissolve lipids membranes‚ and in this exercise acetone would be the main source to be used to have the reaction of dissolving the lipids inside the tubes. This exercise was to be able to observe how the chemicals reacted in rare temperatures such in heat and in cold weather‚ also this type of changes can create a new color either making the color lighter or darker. The reaction of a light color would be that it did

Effects of the Bottleneck and the Founders effect Cecil Smith GS102 Grantham University Online The bottleneck effect happens when something of a great devastation has happened‚ causing a great amount of people to lose their lives and leave behind very few people at the most. The bottleneck effect happens at random and can kill of a whole population and with it can also wipe out the gene pool by doing so. An example of the bottleneck effect would be something like a tsunami‚ or an earthquake‚ which

Biology Lab T 10:50 The Effects of Alcohol on the Cell Membrane Introduction To understand the effects of alcohol on cell membranes can help one understand more about the effects of alcohol on human cells that are contained in the digestive system and the blood stream. It is important to study this effect due to the fact that it can lead to the understanding of the dangers of alcohol‚ over consumption‚ and even possibly alcohol poisoning. Performing this lab enables the students to have a firsthand

The results produce a graph with negative correlation‚ a curve that has a negative gradient. The graph shows that as the temperature is increased‚ the colorimeter reading is decreased.

Depressants and Their Effects In today’s world people are becoming more and more dependant on drugs‚ in particular‚ depressants. By definition‚ a depressant is a chemical agent that diminishes the function or activity of a specific part of the body. There are many different types of depressants ranging from sleeping medications to laughing gas‚ and of course the most common‚ alcohol. Like all medications‚ there are the legal and illegal types. Heroin‚ marijuana‚ and GHB which is commonly used
