Osmosis in Plants Outline: To investigate the effect of varying concentration of a certain sugar solution on the amount of osmotic activity between the solution and a potato chip of a given size. Definition - Osmosis: Movement of a solvent (liquid) through a semi-permeable membrane separating solutions of different concentrations. The solvent passes from a less concentrated solution to a more concentrated solution until the two concentrations are equal. All

Stacy Hernandez Period 1 Mrs. Riley AP Biology Osmosis and Diffusion Lab I. Introduction: Diffusion is vital to many life functions of a cell‚ it allow the transportation of vitally important nutrients and compounds without the expenditure of excess metabolic energy. To explain diffusion‚ it is as if a bottle of perfume is opened at one end of the room‚ then in a short amount of time a person at the other end of the room can detect the scent of the perfume; this is the process of diffusion

air. However there is a specialized type of diffusion called Osmosis. This is when water molecules moves from a region of high concentration of water to a region of low concentration of water thru a semi-permeable membrane. Osmosis will only occur thru a semi-permeable membrane (that is a membrane which selectively allows passage of certain types of molecules through it while restricting the movement of others) Examples of Osmosis includes a) The absorption of water by plants roots to maintain

the beetroot cells. Osmosis‚ which is the net movement of water particles from a region of higher water potential to a region of lower water potential through a selectively-permeable membrane until equilibrium is reached‚ occurs the most for the beetroot cells which are submerged in the 4ml of 50% alcohol. This is because‚ the 4ml of 50% alcohol is the most concentrated solution among the 5 set-ups‚ hence would be the most hypertonic solution to the beetroot cells. Hence‚ osmosis would occur more rapidly

Vegetable Introduction Background Information: Osmosis is the passage of water from a region of high water potential to a region of low water potential‚ down a water potential gradient through a semi-permeable membrane. If a plant cell‚ or an item with similar properties is put in water‚ three different things can happen: • If the surrounding area has a higher water potential‚ the cell will increase in mass through osmosis. The cell will become turgid. • If the surrounding

RESEARCH QUESTION How does 15% NaCl solution affect the appearance of onion cells? 2. HYPOTHESIS If onion cells are submerged in solutions of NaCl of different concentrations‚ then cells will lose water and the plasma membrane will shrink. This is because the process of osmosis will take place. Because of a difference between

Research Question/ Aim How do the different sodium chloride concentrations of solutions affect the length (measured in mm) and mass (measured in grams) of potato cores placed in them overnight (approximately 10 hours)? 2. Hypothesis Alternative hypothesis: As the concentration of sodium chloride in the solution increases‚ the mass of the potato cores will decrease. If the solution they are in has a lower water potential than the potato cores‚ there will be
