Diffusion and Osmosis Worksheet Diffusion is the movement of particles from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration. It is a natural‚ random process. This means that it does not require extra energy input. 1a. These are pictures of molecules frozen at two different times. Draw arrows to show the direction each particle might travel due to diffusion in diagrams A and B. A. B. Random arrows Random arrows 1b. Describe the way the particles

Diffusion‚ Osmosis‚ Active Transport There are two ways in which substances can enter or leave a cell: 1) Passive a) Simple Diffusion b) Facilitated Diffusion c) Osmosis (water only) 2) Active a) Molecules b) Particles Diffusion Diffusion is the net passive movement of particles (atoms‚ ions or molecules) from a region in which they are in higher concentration to regions of lower concentration. It continues until the concentration of substances is uniform throughout. Some major examples of diffusion

It will led the cells move randomly around to others. For this molecular movement‚ there are two results that might happen. Diffusion is one of them. Diffusion is the movement of molecules that between the high concentration and the

Diffusion and Osmosis Diffusion -the process by which molecules spread from areas of high concentratiion‚ to areas of low concentration. When the molecules are even throughout a space - it is called EQUILIBRIUM DIFFUSION Concentration gradient - a difference between concentrations in a space. Molecules will always move down the concentration gradient‚ toward areas of lesser concentration. Think of food coloring that spreads out in a glass of water‚ or air freshener sprayed in a room

in the artificial cells to the diffusion rate using the phenolphthalein-NaOH agar and the HCl solution. Lab #2 was a model of diffusion and osmosis‚ in which we filled the model cells with different solutions and determined the rate of diffusion. In lab #3‚ the results demonstrated the interactions between selectively permeable membranes‚ water‚ and solutes and how they are important in cellular and organismal functions. In lab #1‚ the results showed the diffusion rate between the certain time period

learned that the primary structure of a cell membrane is made up of a double layer of phospholipids molecules. The hydrophilic heads of the phospholipid molecules face outwards towards the water base solutions inside and outside the cell. The membrane is also made up of proteins‚ carbohydrate molecules‚ and cholesterol that form gates and pores‚ cell recognition‚ and stability. Active transport is used when a cell needs a substance to cross the membrane against its concentration gradient using protein

Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to test the effects of osmosis on eggs in hypertonic solutions and hypotonic solutions. Hypothesis: If the corn syrup is a hypertonic solution‚ then the egg’s size will shrink. If the water is a hypotonic solution‚ then the egg will swell. Materials: Styrofoam cups (2 per group) Styrofoam cups to weigh down egg (2) Balance Paper towels Vinegar (enough to cover egg) Distilled water Corn syrup Fresh eggs (2 per group) Procedure: Day

Diffusion and Osmosis Experiment Methods/Materials: 7.1 Experiment: Rate of Diffusion of Solutes In the initial set up of this experiment I had 2 sets of 3 screw-cap test tubes that had each been half-filled with 5% gelatin and 1-mL of the correct dye (either potassium dichromate‚ aniline blue‚ or Janus green) in each of the test tubes. I labeled the 3 test tubes of set 1 with which die they contained and marked them “5 ˚C”. Then with the other set I did the same exact thing‚ except I labeled

life. Diffusion and osmosis are processes that are a constant in our lives‚ even though many don’t realize it. Medicaments such as Fervex can be drunk only after diffusion has taken place and the powder granules have diffused into the hot cup of water. On the other hand‚ every day we become unintentional witnesses of osmosis when the roots of the plants try to suck up the water from the soil (1). The purpose of this lab is to show clearly in an understandable way how diffusion and osmosis happen
