Lab Topic: Movement of Materials Across the Cell Membrane—Potato Tuber Cells Introduction: Osmosis is a form of diffusion in which water diffuses through a selectively permeable membrane from a region of high concentration to a region of lower concentration. This form of diffusion takes place when the molecules in high concentration are too large to move through the membrane. Three factors that determine cell membrane permeability are shape‚ size‚ and polarity. For this experiment‚ it must

Understanding ion permeability is vital to knowing how it establishes a membrane potential‚ and how it eventually leads to the contraction of muscle cells. This was done using crayfish tail muscles. Lateral and medial tail muscles from the tail of a crayfish were excised. These muscles were then placed into solutions with different types of ion concentrations. Usage of different ion concentrations was necessary in practicing how to measure resting membrane potentials accurately. Measurements with

There were four concentrations and these were‚ 0.5M‚ 1M‚ 1.5M and 2M plus distilled water and air as the control. When performing this experiment‚ the main element to consider is hypertonic‚ hypotonic and isotonic solutions and how they relate to osmosis. Osmosis is the process where a fluid passes through a semipermeable membrane‚ which moves from an area which the solute is present in high concentrations. As a result of osmosis‚ there will be an equal amount of fluid on
