Natalia Wierzchon A.P. Biology Lab: 1. Osmosis 09/10/2010 I. Introduction a. Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to observe the diffusion process of water‚ osmosis‚ as well as create an understanding of water potential‚ the basis of osmosis. The experiment proved how water molecules in a solution are able to move from an area of low solute concentration‚ high water concentration‚ to an area of high solute concentration‚ low water concentration‚ diffusing “down” the water gradient.

EXPERIMENT OBJECTIVE The objective of this experiment is to develop an understanding of the molecular basis of diffusion and osmosis and its physiological importance. Students will analyze how solute size and concentration affect diffusion across semi-permeable membranes and how these processes affect water potential. Students

Biology has been the most interesting and appealing subject I have taken. Taking the course as a freshman‚ and the AP course as a junior‚ has really influenced my choice of a potential major. The course taught me how to be more studious and efficient with the information I retain. It is a puzzle‚ in which you piece together process by process‚ step by step. AP Biology also enhanced my collaboration skills. The course is very rigorous and challenging‚ and I struggled often trying to do it all by myself

a semi-permeable membrane is the process of osmosis. If there is a solute and a solvent‚ each containing different concentration levels‚ then the water would move along its concentration gradient until each side of the membrane are equal. The water moves because the membrane is impermeable to the solute and the solute concentrations may differ on either side of the membrane. Water molecules may move in and out of the cell‚ but there is no net diffusion of water. Water will move in one direction or

AP biology FRQ Courtney DeMane 1.22.13 block 7 A). The chemical composition and structure of proteins seems quite confusing at first but one it is broken down into levels it is much more understandable. Amino acids are the basic building blocks of proteins and they contain amino‚ carboxyl and R groups. These R groups that are in the amino acids are what determine the properties of the specific amino acids. For structure‚ there are 4 levels. The first one being the primary level. These are made

As discussed in the intro‚ the purpose of this lab is to observe principles of homeostasis and osmosis in action. The results of this experiment showed that eggs placed in a 4 M sucrose solution lost mass over time and had the greatest percent difference in mass compared to the eggs in other solutions‚ with the 4 M egg having an average of -25.13% difference in mass. The 0.0 M solution egg only had a 12.28 average percent difference in mass‚ the 0.5 M egg with 10.39%‚ and the 1 M egg with the least

AP Biology Summer Assignment Chapter 50.1: An Introduction to Ecology and the Biosphere Ecology is the scientific study of how organisms interact with the environment. When studying Ecology scientists want to know‚ where organisms live‚ why they live there‚ and how many are there. Ecology and environmental biology both stem from Darwin’s interest and observations upon the distribution of organisms and how they adapted to their specific environment. Darwin concluded that the environment interacting
