    of this lab was to hypothesize about membrane traffic in lab‚ explain the differences between the solutions hypertonic‚ hypotonic‚ and isotonic and how they respond using the understanding of the cell membrane structure‚ types of transport mechanisms such as active‚ passive‚ diffusion‚ osmosis‚ and explain the movement of particles moving across the cell membrane. In this lab was divided into two parts. The first part was varying the concentration and the second part was varying the temperature.
