wider spread to compare the results‚ and check that I don’t have any anomalies Prediction Osmosis is the process of diffusion of water molecules from a weaker solution into a stronger solution‚ through a semi permeable membrane. The tiny pores in the membrane of the potatoes will allow the water molecules to go in and out of the potato cell‚ depending on the concentration gradient between the potato and the sucrose solution. If the water concentration is lower in the potato than

to the point where the cytoplasm of the cell membrane peels away from the cell wall. When this begins to happen it is called Incipient Plasmolysis and when the cytoplasm is almost completely gone it is call “full/complete” Plasmolysis. Plasmolysis is only possible if the cell is placed in a hypertonic solution‚ which is a solution where the water external to the cell has more solutes than within the plant cell and because of that the water potential outside the cell would be lower than inside the

process of the facilitated diffusion of glucose through a selectively permeable membrane. Introduction: Experiment #1 and #2 are meant to show the processes of Simple and Facilitated diffusion. Both the solutes and water were used to show how they diffuse through a semi permeable membrane. In experiment #1 the process of using the solute and deionized water shows how much of the solute is passed through the membrane. In experiment #2 the rate of facilitated diffusion relied on the amount of carrier

ratio will experience the greatest weight change‚ because more water can move by osmosis across the potato cell’s semi permeable membrane. 2) If potato pieces are immersed in various salt solutions‚ then the pieces immersed in the most concentrated solution will experience he greatest weight change‚ because more water must pass across the potato cells semi permeable membrane by osmosis to achieve an equilibrium. The results from testing these hypotheses did not support either and were shown to be flawed

You may also see proteins in the cell membrane that act as channels to help the movement along. Of course there is an in-between transport process where very small molecules are able to cross a semi-permeable membrane. Proteins are used to help move molecules more quickly. Since the cell membrane will not allow glucose to cross by diffusion‚ helpers are needed. The cell might notice outside fluids rushing by with free glucose molecules. The membrane proteins then grab one molecule and
