    Experimental Laboratory Report: An investigation into the rate of osmosis Liana Gohery - 98332250 12/12/2014 Word count - ………3000……….. 1. Abstract This study was conducted to investigate the effect of concentration gradients on the rate of osmosis. Osmosis is the cellular transport of water‚ this study was conducted to show the significance of the rate at which this occurs. Dialysis bags were filled with three different concentrations of sucrose solutions and two with water. They were

    Abstract - The experiments done in class served for multiple purposes. It helped identify that diffusion is the shifting of molecules from one part to another that takes no energy‚ and that osmosis is just the flow of water through the cell membrane. The main purpose of the first experiment was to examine the movement of H2O and other materials in living and simulate systems. This was done through the dialysis tubing to mimic the cell membrane and measure the change of mass inside the tube filled

    into the muscle tissue during exercise. This increases the surface area of air in contact with the cells. Gases diffuse in through the spiracles and down the tracheae and tracheoles. Ventilation movements of the body during exercise may help this diffusion. The spiracles can be closed by valves and may be surrounded by tiny hairs. These help keep humidity around the opening‚ ensure there is a lower concentration gradient of water vapour‚ and so less is lost from the insect by evaporation. FISH

    performed: 10/10/11 and 10/11/11 Introduction: The purpose of the laboratory investigation was to observe the diffusion of water across a semi-permeable membrane. In this lab‚ dialysis tubing was used to represent the semi-permeable cell membrane. Three dialysis tubes were prepared with 5% sucrose solution and were soaked in solutions of different concentrations. The diffusion of water across a semi-permeable membrane is called osmosis. When water diffuses‚ the water molecules move from a hypotonic

    on the lab. Introduction Diffusion and Osmosis are two concepts that go hand in hand with each other. Diffusion is simply described as the movement of a substance from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration. In another words‚ the substance will move down its concentration gradient which is “the region along which the density of a chemical substance increases or decreases” (Campbell Biology pg. 132). If you understand the concept of diffusion then osmosis is a very simple

    Review Sheet 1 Results 1. Describe two variables that affect the rate of diffusion. Your answer: Two variables that affect the rate of diffusion are the MWCO membrane and the solute concentration. Increasing the membrane size and solute concentration will also increase the average diffusion rate. Decreasing the membrane size and solute concentration will reduce diffusion rates and can even prevent all diffusion. 2. Why do you think the urea was not able to diffuse through the 20 MWCO membrane
