Diffusion Introduction Diffusion is the net movement of ions or molecules from a region of high concentration to a region of low along the concentration gradient until equilibrium has been reached. The steeper the gradient the faster the rate of diffusion. There are a few types of diffusion. Three (3) of those are: Facilitated Diffusion- refers to diffusion of substances across a cell membrane with the help of transport protein. Dialysis- refers to the diffusion of solutes across a semipermeable

The Effect of Molecular Weight and Time on the Diffusion Rate of Potassium Permanganate‚ Potassium Dichromate‚ and Methylene Blue.1 Arantxa Alex Carpio Group 1 Sec. X – 4L March 24‚ 2015 ABSTRACT The effect of molecular weight and time on the rate of diffusion was determined using the agar-water gel test. A petri dish of agar-water gel with three wells was prepared and a prepared solution of each substance was dropped on each well; one with potassium permanganate (KMnO4)‚

Biology 107 Section 1 11/4/13 Diffusion & Osmosis Introduction The purpose in this experiment was to estimate the osmolarity of potato tuber and celery cells by change of weight.Pieces of potato tuber and celery would be incubated in different sucrose solutions to find out the molarity at which weight of potato and celery tissues do not change. My hypothesis was that the Table 1: Group Data for Experiment:Estimating Osmolarity by Change in Weight Table

Chapter 1 Outline Intro to Human Geography Field Note: Humans are geographers by nature. They can think territorially or spatially and have an awareness of‚ and curiosity about the distinctive nature of places. Even children possess qualities of geographers‚ creating carefully mapped realms in tiny places. Places possess an emotional quality‚ and we all must belong somewhere. Humans’ insatiable curiosity and the place-centered element within us gave birth to geography as an academic discipline.

What is Human Geography? Human geography- how people make places‚ how we organize space and society‚ how we interact with each other in places and across space‚ and how we make sense of others and ourselves in our localities‚ regions‚ and the world. Advances in communication and transportation technologies are making places and people become more interconnected. 100 years ago‚ fastest transportation was the steamship‚ railroad‚ and horse. 200 countries‚ diverse world.

The human race has advanced massively over the years. From the time that our ancestors first decided to leave all they had ever known in their home in Africa and venture into the great unknown. Regardless of whether you gauge progress economically‚ technologically‚ or culturally‚ by all of these measures mankind has made incredible advances. However‚ man’s progress was not entirely due to human inventions and innovations. Physical geography influenced many of their choices and we are still affected
