Activity 1: Stimulating Dialysis (Simple Diffusion) 1. Describe two variables that affect the rate of diffusion. The two variables that affect the rate of diffusion are: • The composition of the lipid layer‚ this content varies from tissue to tissue. For example kidney tissues have a high cholesterol content which makes them impermeable to water. • The size of the molecule‚ the larger the molecule the slower the rate of diffusion. 2. Why do you think the urea was not able to diffuse

Name: TORI SCHARKLEY Exercise 1: Cell Transport Mechanisms and Permeability: Activity 1: Simulating Dialysis (Simple Diffusion) Lab Report Pre-lab Quiz Results You scored 75% by answering 3 out of 4 questions correctly. 1. The driving force for diffusion is You correctly answered: b. the kinetic energy of the molecules in motion. 2. In diffusion‚ molecules move You correctly answered: a. from high concentration to low concentration. 3. Which of the following dialysis membranes has the largest pore
Free Molecular diffusion Diffusion Concentration
supported by using Fick’s law: rate of diffusion=area x concentration difference/ distance. This formula illustrates that as the concentration difference increases‚ so does the rate of diffusion. Therefore‚ higher concentrated solutions will have a higher rate of diffusion/osmosis. 2a. The purpose of increasing the concentration of sodium chloride was to increase the rate of diffusion. This illustrated that as concentration increased‚ the rate of diffusion also increase. 2b. This experiment

Simulating Dialysis (Simple Diffusion) 1. Describe two variables that affect the rate of diffusion. a. Two variables that affect the rate of diffusion are size and whether or not there is an electrical or concentration gradient. 2. Why do you think the urea was not able to diffuse through the 20 MWCO membrane? How well did the results compare with your prediction? a. My prediction was incorrect. I think the urea was not able to diffuse through the 20 MWCO membrane because the molecular weight of urea is about

The two variables that affect the rate of diffusion are: A. The size of the molecule. The larger molecule will diffuse more slowly than the smaller molecule. B. The nature of plasma membrane. If the membrane is composed of lipid portion.‚ only lipid soluble molecules can pass through while water molecules

ACTIVITY ONE- Cell Transport Mechanisms and Permeability: Simulating Dialysis (Simple Diffusion) 1. Describe two variables that affect the rate of diffusion. Molecular weight affects the rate of diffusion because the bigger the size of the molecule the longer it will take to diffuse. Membrane size is another variable that affects the rate of diffusion because if the membrane’s pores are small it will take molecules longer to diffuse though it than if the pores were larger. Also‚ membrane thickness

Describe two variables that affect the rate of diffusion. ___ Two variables that affect rate of diffusion are molecule size and plasma membrane composition. A larger molecule will diffuse more slowly than a smaller molecule. The lipid content of the plasma membrane determines permeability of certain molecules. A
