    cell wall surrounding them. When the take up water by osmosis they start to swell‚ but the cell wall stops them from bursting. When they are put in dilute solutions‚ plant cells turn out to be “turgid” (swollen and hard). When the pressure inside the cell increases; No more water can’t enter the cell because the internal pressure of the cell is really high. “When plant cells are placed in concentrated sugar solutions they lose water by osmosis and they become “flaccid”; this is the exact opposite

    Osmosis is the spontaneous net movement of solvent molecules through a partially permeable membrane into a region of higher solute concentration‚ in the direction that tends to equalize the solute concentrations on the two sides. It may also be used to describe a physical process in which any solvent moves‚ without input of energy‚ across a semipermeable membrane separating two solutions of different concentrations. Although osmosis does not require input of energy‚ it does use kinetic energy and

    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

    Osmosis in Potato Tubers Andrew Dickson Background When a plant cell is bathed in a solution of the same concentration (isotonic) as its intracellular environment‚ its mass and volume remain the same. This is because water enters and leaves the cells at the same rate. There is no net loss or gain of water by osmosis. Samples of cells can be placed in a range of solutions of different concentration. The cells will gain water by osmosis when placed in solutions which are more dilute (hypotonic)

    Investigation: A factor that affects the movement of water in and out of cells. Osmosis: movement of water from a region of high water potential to a region of low water potential through a partially permeable membrane. High water potential = lots of free water molecules‚ low solute concentration Low water potential = very few free water molecules‚ high solute concentration Factors That Affect the Movement of Water in and out of Cells * Solute concentration * If one solution

    Diffusion and Osmosis Introduction Tonicity refers to the concentration of solutes in a solution (Lab 6-7). There are three stages of tonicity: Isotonichypertonic and hypotonic. Four unknown solutions were given and labeled as followed: Solution A‚ Solution B‚ Solution C‚ and Solution D. Since potato cells were used for this type of experiment‚ in an Isotonic solution the solute and water concentration are the same as inside the cell in which the isotonic solution contains 0.9% NaCl. In other

Hypothesis: 1. In an animal cell in a hypertonic solution the egg will swell‚ in a hypotonic solution the egg will swell. 2. In a plant cell in a hypertonic solution it will shrink‚ and in a hypotonic solution it will swell. Methodology: Part

    performing this experiment‚ the main element to consider is hypertonic‚ hypotonic and isotonic solutions and how they relate to osmosis. Osmosis is the process where a fluid passes through a semipermeable membrane‚ which moves from an area which the solute is present in high concentrations. As a result of osmosis‚ there will be an equal amount of fluid on either side of the barrier‚ creating an isotonic solution. When cells are placed in an isotonic solution‚ the movement of water outside of the cell

    In this experiment‚ we had to demonstrate the process of osmosis using potatoes‚ and to determine the concentration of the cytoplasm of the potato. To demonstrate this‚ we had 6 test tubes and poured in different sucrose solutions of the following concentrations: 0.0M‚ 0.1M‚ 0.2M‚ 0.5M‚ and 1.0M. Once added in with all the sucrose solutions‚ we added in the 6 cylindrical potatoes of equal diameter and length. Before and after putting it in the potatoes‚ we had to weigh the initial and the final mass
