    concentrations of both sucrose and water and calculating the cumulative change in weight ever 10 minutes for 90 minutes. Our results for the artificial cells showed different concentrations moved from high to low concentrations- through hypotonic movement or hypertonic movement. Introduction The main purpose of this paper is to assess the rate of change with osmosis for different concentrations of sucrose in artificial cells. Since the human body is composed of trillions of cells that contain roughly

    “What are the effects of specific gravity‚ urine output volume‚ and salt concentration when you ingest a hypertonichypotonic‚ and isotonic solution?” Specific Gravity: Is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density (mass of the same unit volume) of a reference substance. Apparent specific gravity is the ratio of the weight of a volume of the substance to the weight of an equal volume of the reference substance. Urine specific gravity results fall between 1.002 and 1.030 if your kidneys

    transport‚ this means that they do not require energy or pumps. There are different environments created due to diffusion. There are hypotonichypertonic‚ and isotonic environments. Hypotonic is when the solution has a lower solute concentration compared to the water potential. The hypertonic solution has a higher solute concentration and lower water potential. In an isotonic solution‚ there is no net movement and there is an equal concentration of solutes and water. In our lab‚ we modeled diffusion and

    environments: hypotonicisotonic‚ and hypertonic. Hypotonic solution causes the cell to swell until it bursts. Hypertonic solution causes the cell to shrink or to lose weight. Isotonic solution doesn’t cause the egg to shrink or swell‚ it keeps the cell the same it’s just in a different environment. The hypothesis for the egg in one-hundred-percent water was that it was going to come out in hypertonic solution. For the egg in one-hundred-percent syrup was that it would come out in a hypotonic solution

    cells are located which include isotonichypotonic and hypertonic. In an isotonic environment‚ the amount of water and solute are the same both inside and outside of the cell. As water drifts into the a cell‚ the same amount flows out creating a balanced environment both inside and outside of the cell. When there is a high level of water on the outside of the cell and a high amount of solute inside the cell‚ water will be drawn inside of the cell creating a hypotonic solution. The increase in water

    sucrose were used to determine the osmolarity of a potato. It was found that the concentration of sucrose was close to 3.6 in the potato used showing that it was isotonic. Anything above caused the potato to gain weight showing that it was a hypotonic solution and anything below caused the potato to lose weight showing that it is a hypertonic solution. Teachers can use this experiment to help teach students the concept of osmolarity and tonicity in a real time situation. Introduction Sucrose is a carbohydrate

    Abstract The experiment was carried out to investigate at which point the potato has reached its isotonic environment. From the results‚ when the concentration increase to 0.3M‚ the mass of the potato slices decreased by -3.26%. We can conclude we see that as we increased the sucrose concentration it was a decrease in the percent change. Introduction All cells have membranes that are selectively permeable. In other words‚ they allow certain things in and certain substances are not allowed to

    Diffusion And Osmosis Abstract In this Diffusion and Osmosis lab a total of three experiments were performed. For experiment 5.1 we investigate diffusion through a selectively permeable membrane and the many factors that influence the rates of diffusion. In experiment 5.2 we investigate both animal and plant cells in different molar solutions and the different osmotic behaviors within the cells. In experiment 5.3 we test the osmolarity of plant cells through the usage of potato tuber cells

    three stages of tonicity: Isotonichypertonic and hypotonic. Four unknown solutions were given and labeled as followed: Solution A‚ Solution B‚ Solution C‚ and Solution D. Since potato cells were used for this type of experiment‚ in an Isotonic solution the solute and water concentration are the same as inside the cell in which the isotonic solution contains 0.9% NaCl. In other words‚ water moves in and out in the same amount without causing any changes. In a hypertonic environment‚ the solute concentration

    diffusion: isotonichypertonic‚ or hypotonic. When the solutions have the same concentration of solutes‚ they are isotonic. When the solutions differ in their solute concentration‚ the solution with more solute is hypertonic to the other solution. The solution that has less solute is hypotonic
