generate the pressure‚ because it does not diffuse. ACTIVITY 5: Filtration What were the results of your initial membrane analysis? Solute Residue for all solutes (Na/Cl‚ Urea‚ Glucose‚ Powdered charcoal) were present. Does the membrane MWCO affect filtration rate? Yes‚ the larger the MWCO the faster the filtration Does the amount of pressure applied affect the filtration rate? Yes‚ the greater the pressure‚ the faster the filtration Did all

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

ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY Chronic Kidney Disease Cardiovascular System The cardiovascular system is sometimes called the circulatory system. It consists of the heart‚ which is a muscular pumping device‚ and a closed system of vessels called arteries‚ veins‚ and capillaries. As the name implies‚ blood contained in the circulatory system is pumped by the heart around a closed circuit of vessels as it passes again and again through the various "circulations" of the body. The Heart * The heart

also had a high refusal for salts as well as high refusal for organic contaminants. With the constant development and improvement of reverse osmosis membranes‚ they were able to take a step towards the commercial market first in 1965 with a water filtration pilot program utilizing the method in Coalinga‚ California under the leadership of Joseph W. McCutchan and pioneer Sidney Loeb. In 1977‚ Cape Coral‚ Florida started to use reverse osmosis on a citywide

are not in a fixed ratio‚ and while some mixtures‚ such as concrete‚ are useful‚ others including salt water‚ are not as useful to us. Filtration‚ distillation‚ paper chromatography‚ and centrifugation are just a few methods used for separating mixtures. There are many methods of separating mixtures. A more commonly known and used method is filtration. Filtration separates mixtures using filter paper‚

Experiment simulations examine substances that move passively through a semipermeable membrane‚ and those that require active transport. Those that move passively through the membrane will do so in these simulations by facilitated diffusion and filtration. The plasma membrane’s structure is composed in such a way that it can discriminate as to which substances can pass into the cell. This enables nutrients to enter the cell‚ while keeping unwanted substances out. Active transport requires that the

heterogeneous mixture from substances commonly found at the beach. Sand and salt water will be added to the beaker to be separated. The sand will then be separated through the means of filtration. Then the salt will be separated from the water through evaporation. Theory: If the heterogeneous mixture is separated through filtration then the salt water and sand should be separated completely.A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture that is not evenly distributed throughout. If the homogenous mixture is separated

Simple Diffusion 1. The following refer to Activity 1: Simulating Dialysis (Simple Diffusion). Which solute(s) were able to pass through the 20 MWCO membrane? None According to your results‚ which solute had the highest molecular weight? Albumin Which solute displayed the highest rate of diffusion through the 200 MWCO membrane? NACI_ Using the data from Chart 1‚ explain the relationship between the rate of diffusion and the size of the solute. The smaller the solute particle‚ the greater

activities contaminated groundwater in 1815. The three experiments were being conducted to determine whether oil‚ vinegar and laundry detergents have an effect on groundwater contamination. The experiment was also being conducted to establish whether filtration is an effective method of water treatment. Furthermore‚ the experiment was done to examine the difference in colour and smell between contaminated and treated water. Another objective behind these experiments was to examine which drinking water
