Formal Scientific Lab Report Osmosis Katy Hunter 10-26-2012 Abstract: The objectives of this lab was to be able to create models of cells with the dialysis tubing to show us how the plasma membrane is selectively permeable‚ to study the effects of osmosis on a model cell‚ and to foresee the effect of solute concentration on osmosis. In order to achieve these objectives‚ we had to fill the dialysis tubing with either water‚ or different amounts of sucrose. We then tied off the tubes and put

The different types of diets Glucose Control - Diabetic Diet Nutrition experts say that there is no one diet for diabetes‚ but people with diabetes should follow the nutrition guidelines in the Food Pyramid‚ while paying special attention to carbohydrate intake. People with diabetes should also eat about the same amount of food at the same time each * Eat more starches such as bread‚ cereal‚ and starchy vegetables. Aim for six servings a day or more. For example‚ have cold cereal with nonfat

OSMOSIS LAB BACKGROUND INFORMATION. Dialysis tubing is being used to model a plasma membrane. Isotonic solutions are solutions that have the same concentration of solutes on both sides of the membrane. Hypertonic solutions are solutions that have more solute to the one with less solute. Hypotonic solution are solutions that have less solute to the one with more solute. RESEARCH QUESTION:which dialysis tubing will gain the distilled water and which one will loss its content

Gizmo™. 1. Below the Food samples label‚ drag tube A into the Food sample holder. Below the Benedict test‚ click the Test button. The Benedict test is a test for monosaccharides; simple sugars like glucose or fructose (fruit sugar). In contact with monosaccharides‚ the Benedict solution turns from blue to pink. Does Sample A contain monosaccharides? _________ Note: Disaccharides such as sucrose (table sugar) and lactose (milk sugar) are more complex than monosaccharides. The

Biology GCSE Coursework: Osmosis in Potato Chips Skill Area P: Planning 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 chip of a given size. Hypothesis: Osmosis is defined as the net movement of water or any other solution’s 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

Report on Osmosis and Diffusion Biology 1‚ Period 3 March 15‚ 2010 Lab Team: Jason Perez‚ Kicia Long‚ Chris McLemore Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to observe the acts of passive transport: diffusion and osmosis in a model membrane system. The experiment will show how molecules in solution move from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration. The model membrane is dialysis tubing. Materials Used 2.5 cm dialysis tubing 15% glucose solution

Sickle-Cell Anemia is a genetic blood disorder caused by the presence of an abnormal form of hemoglobin. These hemoglobin molecules tend to aggregate after unloading oxygen forming long‚ rod-like structures that force the red cells to assume a sickle shape. Unlike normal red cells‚ which are usually smooth and malleable‚ the sickle red cells cannot squeeze through small blood vessels. When the sickle cells block small blood vessels‚ the organs are deprived of blood and oxygen. This leads to periodic

one person understood the exercise and communicated that understanding very well. Osmosis and Water Potential in Potato Tissue Melanie Shadish‚ Rob Harris‚ Patricia Tellekamp Water appears to cross the differentially permeable membrane of potato cells by a process called osmosis. The measure of the energy involved in osmosis is called water potential. Since water must lose energy as it moves by osmosis‚ water must move from an area of greater potential to an area of less water potential

Osmosis Lab Introduction: In order for cells to interact with their environment‚ molecules must be able to move through the cell membrane. Movement within the cell occurs by diffusion. Molecules move through the cell membrane by osmosis. Diffusion is the movement of molecules from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration. This happens because of random molecular motion. Molecules move around randomly until there is an even mixture throughout cell and mixture. The overall

test the weight of six potatoes before and after being put into different sucrose solutions. The following data was observed and collected throughout the experiment. Observations: -Qualitative: The potatoes were: Tubed shaped Yellow in color Initially hard in texture -Quantitative: Table 1: Weight of the potato in grams before and after placed in a different concentrations of sucrose solutions. Sucrose solution (M) Weight Before (g) ± 0.01 (A) Weight After (g) ± 0.01 (B) 0 4.56 4.31
