    molecule that can diffuse freely in a cell. Other molecules need assistance through the cell membrane through a process called facilitated diffusion. Osmosis moves from an area of low concentration to high concentration. In osmosis water moves in the opposite way. Water flow is determined by the concentration‚ not the nature of the solute. There are a couple of things to consider for diffusion to work. The size of the cell‚ permeability‚ molecules in the cell‚ and time it takes to diffuse. Processed

    Question: Describe the path taken by a red blood cell as it passes from the left atrium to the cells in the cell kidneys and back to the left atrium Answer: The red blood cells enter through the right atrium and there the blood color is blue. Next‚ it goes through the right ventricles‚ and then to the pulmonary artery. After goes through those valves‚ it then goes through the lungs‚ and the lungs turn the blood into red‚ thus stating that it contains oxygen. Pass the lungs‚ and then into the pulmonary

Human hemoglobin is obtained from donated blood that has reached its expiration date and from the small amount of red cells collected as a by-product during plasma donation. b. Perfluorocarbon(PFC) PFCs are synthetic hydrocarbons with halide substitutions and are about 1/100th the size of a red blood cell. These solutions have the capacity to dissolve up to 50 times more oxygen than plasma. Because PFC solutions are modified hydrocarbons‚ however‚ they do

    Osmosis Aim: To determine the concentration of cell sap in a potato cell. Osmosis is the movement of water through a semi-permeable membrane. It starts from a weak solution and becomes a more stronger solution until the concentrations on both sides are equal. To investigate the range of solutions needed to find the point at which the surrounding solution is the same as the cell sap in the vacuole.

    http://thegrabup.com/?p=811 Significance Of Osmosis (700-1200) Osmosis is a process of movement of solvent through a semi permeable membrane from an area of high water concentration to an area of low water concentration to equalize the concentration of solute to both side of the membrane. . Water is sometimes called "the perfect solvent‚" and living tissue (for example‚ a human being’s cell walls) is the best example of a semipermeable membrane. Osmosis process as demonstrated below shows that when
