Stacy Hernandez Period 1 Mrs. Riley AP Biology Osmosis and Diffusion Lab I. Introduction: Diffusion is vital to many life functions of a cell‚ it allow the transportation of vitally important nutrients and compounds without the expenditure of excess metabolic energy. To explain diffusion‚ it is as if a bottle of perfume is opened at one end of the room‚ then in a short amount of time a person at the other end of the room can detect the scent of the perfume; this is the process of diffusion

Cell Cytoplasm Composition PURPOSE: To determine the concentration of salt in the cytoplasm of potato cells HYPOTHESIS: Increase in salt concentration results in a hypotonic solution where the mass of the potato increases due to the movement of water into the cell. On the other hand‚ decrease in salt concentration results in a hypertonic solution where the mass of the potato decreases due to the movement of water outside the cell. MATERIALS: Potato Forceps Stopwatch Scalpel Test tubes Knife

1. How does a cell become differentiated? A cell becomes differentiated by using only the DNA that it needs. 2. Give an example of 2 differentiated cells. Two examples of differentiated cells are lysosomes and mitochondria. Lysosomes are small so they can move throughout the cell effectively. Mitochondria have a lot of surface area to make more energy 3. (Essay) What does it mean to be specialized? Explain how the structure of the cell determines its function. Give at least 3 examples. Being specialized

effect on the potato cells. Demonstrate diffusion across a semi-permeable membrane and measure the effect of concentration in the process . Differentiate between hypotonic‚isotonic and hypertonic environment. Hypotonic is a condition in which the environment has a higher solute concentration than inside animal or plant cell. Isotonic is equal concentration that has net flow of water a cross permeable membrane. We will compare salt water to fresh water so we can see if there is an effect caused by

water will be observed. This is described as isotonic. Osmosis does not occur in an isotonic solution‚ because the concentrations are equal on both sides of the membrane and there is no net movement of molecules from one side of the membrane to the other (Payne‚ 2007). A hypotonic solution is a solution in which the concentration of dissolved substances is lower than the concentration inside the cell (Payne‚ 2007). If a cell is put into a hypotonic solution‚ osmosis will cause water to move from
