    Where as the active transport requires energy from the molecule to be moved. oFacilitated diffusion can only move in one direction from high concentration to low concentration‚ which is with the gradient. Where the active transport can move from both low concentrations to high concentrations‚ therefore it can move against the gradient where as the facilitated diffusion can not. The process of active transportation is when a molecule work together with the active side of a protein

    influence the rate of diffusion through a membrane. Chemical kinetics plays a large part in diffusion. In order for a solute to passively diffuse through a membrane‚ it must line up with a pore in the membrane and pass through it (textbook 101). The concentration gradient is also important for diffusion because solutes diffuse from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration (textbook page 101). There are different factors that can affect the rate of this diffusion. Our intent was to measure

    Introduction Diffusion and osmosis are two types of passive transport. Diffusion is a random movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Osmosis is a type of diffusion that diffuses water through a selectively permeable membrane. There were two parts to the experiment‚ the dialysis tubing lab and the potato lab.                     In the first experiment‚ the dialysis tubing acted as a semi-permeable membrane. A semi-permeable membrane is a membrane

    Geography – Unit One Notes What is Geography? Geography is the study of the world‚ how it works‚ and how people use and change the world as they live in it. Origins The word “Geography” comes from the Greek word “Geo.” Meaning earth and “graph” meaning writing. Definitions Population Denisty – Figure calculated by dividing the population of a region by the region’s area. Staristical Analysis – Studying collected data for the purposes of summarizing information to make it more usable and

    The Technology-Diffusion Model illustrates how a social institution reacts to a new technology as follows: • “Innovative technology is created • Institution adopts technology to carry out existing functions more efficiently • Institution accommodates internally to take better advantage of new efficiencies • Institution develops new functions and activities made possible by capabilities of the technology • Institution may become obsolete‚ be replaced‚ or be radically transformed • Other institutions

    Diffusion and Osmosis lab Results: Figure 1a-rate of weight change in 15 min intervals of each concentration. The first tube showed very little weight change. However all other tubes show a greater change the concentration could be the factor that determines the permeability of the sucrose. The sucrose molecules are too large to pass through. Figure 1b- sucrose concentration determines the weight change. In this case based on our results as concentration increases the percent weight change

    Activity 1: Simple diffusion Introduction: Simple diffusion is the net movement of substances from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration so its overall net movement is along the concentration gradient‚ simple diffusion does not require energy therefore it is ’passive’‚ substances are diffused across the membrane between the phospholipids. Materials and methods: * 20 mwco dialysis membrane * 50 mwco dialysis membrane * 100 mwco dialysis membrane * 200 mwco

    Simple Diffusion Activity 1: Simulating Simple diffusion 1.What is the molecular weight of Na+? 22.9 2. What is the molecular weight of Cl-? 35.45 3. Which MWCO dialysis membranes allowed both of these ions through? 50‚ 100‚ and 200 4. Which materials diffused from the left beaker to the right beaker? Urea‚ NaCl and glucose diffused 5. Which did not? Why? Albumin‚ because the molecular weight exceeded the highest MWCO membrane‚ thus being to large to pass through
