    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

    molecules of the food coloring equally distributed in the area of the water. Osmosis is a special type of diffusion where only the water molecules move. This happens through a selectively permeable membrane. It allows water and oxygen to move freely across the membrane. Osmosis only has an effect when the cell is in a hypotonic or hypertonic solution. A hypotonic solution is when the salt concentration

This investigation tested the hypothesis: The rate of osmosis will increase as the temperature increases 2x2x2cm cubes of potato were weighed and then placed into 100mL of 10% NaCl solutions for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes the cubes were again weighed to determine the amount of mass that they lost/gained and thus get an indication of the rate of osmosis. The results collected showed that the rate of osmosis was highest in the 70°C solution and lowest in the 20°C solution. From

    Investigation into finding out the Effect of the effect of osmosis In potato cells Introduction I am doing an experiment to find out the effect that osmosis has on Water solution and a Sugar solution. Osmosis is a process which water moves from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration. I am going to record my results to see if osmosis occurs in water solution of sugar solution. Apparatus In this experiment I would need; - 1) 3 test tube 2) A beaker

    Diffusion and Osmosis in an egg Low concentration 1.1 Diffusion is the process of molecules spreading from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration. High concentration 1.1 Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules through a semi-permeable membrane from the area of low concentration of solute to the area of high concentration of solute. 1.2 Diffusion is important to living cells because it’s the way they take in materials from the environment‚ and they also prevent themselves

    Investigate osmosis between potato tissue and sugar solutions. Aim: To investigate the effect of varying concentration of a certain sugar solution on the amount of osmotic activity between the solution and a potato core of a given size 10mm Hypothesis: Osmosis is defined as the net movement of water or any other solutions molecules from a region in which they are highly concentrated to a region in which they are less concentrated. This movement must take place across a partially permeable

    Diffusion is one of several transport phenomena that occur in nature. A distinguishing feature of diffusion is that it results in mixing or mass transport without requiring bulk motion. Thus‚ diffusion should not be confused with convection or advection‚ which are other transport mechanisms that use bulk motion to move particles from one place to another. In Latin‚ "diffundere" means "to spread out". There are two ways to introduce the notion of diffusion: either a phenomenological approach starting
