    Experiment 1 Background Diffusion is a process‚ in relation to the spontaneous movement of molecules from an area of high concentration‚ to an area of low concentration down a concentration gradient. It is a type of passive transport method‚ that requires no cellular energy (ATP). This movement occurs‚ until a state of equilibrium has been established on both sides of the membrane. The diffusion of molecules happens at cellular level‚ through a cell membrane via the pores. The cell membrane

    Osmosis is the diffusion of a solvent across a selectively permeable membrane that occurs in response to differences in solute concentrations (Allen and Harper 2014).Osmosis can fall under the category of passive transport which does not require energy. With osmosis being a type of diffusion it is viewed as molecules moving from a high concentration to a low concentration. To further explain if there is a low water concentration‚ high amounts of solutes will be present. Water will most likely move

    Osmosis and Diffusion During the past few weeks in my Ag Biology class we have been learning about and reviewing both osmosis and diffusion. We did two different labs‚ one on osmosis; the other on diffusion. The first lab we did was our diffusion lab. We learned that diffusion is moving something from an area of high concentration to a low concentration. We were showed that Mio and other flavor drops perform diffusion when put in water as an example. For the lab part we put a mixture of starch

    DIFFUSION AND OSMOSIS: WHAT’S TO EXPECT? Diffusion and osmosis are very important in biological process. Diffusion is the movement of molecules or ions from a region of their high concentration to a region of their low concentration. Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules across a semipermeable membrane. To gain a better understanding of diffusion and osmosis‚ we examine multiple experiments to show diffusion and osmosis in animal cell‚ plant cell and synthetic cell. In our first experiment

    I. Research Question What are the effects of different sucrose concentrations on potato stripes which have been submerged in a range of solute sucrose concentrations. II. Background Information Osmosis is one of the four methods of moving particles across membranes along with simple diffusion‚ facilitated diffusion‚ and active transport. Water is able to move in and out of most cells freely. Sometimes the number of water molecules moving in and out is the same and there is no net movement‚ but at

    9/17/2013‚ Lois Andersen & Claire Ma “The Power of Osmosis” The purpose of the lab was to discover‚ through osmosis‚ the concentration of sugar water in a potato. First‚ potatoes were cut into strips about 3 centimetres in length and six strips were individually massed. Next‚ the six strips were placed in 6 different Dixie cups‚ labelled A‚ B‚ Q‚ X‚ Y‚ and Z. Each of the Dixie cups were then filled just enough to cover the potato strips‚ with substances that matched the letters of the cups

    Aim: The aim of this experiment is to investigate the movement of water into and out of plant cells by osmosis. The cells chosen for study will be taken from potato tubes as they provide a ready supply of homogeneous material. I did the investigation in two parts‚ the first part of my investigation was my preliminary investigation and then I did my official investigation. In both of my investigations there are several similarities‚ such as fair testing‚ variables‚ key variables‚ reliability
