    Lab report OSMOSIS TROUGH A SELECTIVELY PERMEABLE MEMBRANE Introduction: Molecules have kinetic energy.  This causes the molecules of the cell to move around and bump into each other. Osmosis is a special kind of diffusion where water moves through a selectively permeable membrane (a membrane that only allows certain molecules to diffuse though).  Diffusion or osmosis occurs until dynamic equilibrium has been reached.  This is the point where the concentrations in both areas are equal and no

    Biology Hl lab report: Topic: Osmosis of potatoes in different sucrose solutions. The aim of this experiment is to test whether more water moves out of a potato when it is placed in a sweeter sucrose solution than a potato in a less sweet solution. The hypothesis of the experiment is that we expect more water to move out of the potato placed in the sweet solution than the potato placed in a less sweet solution. Independent variable: concentration of sucrose‚ concentrations: pure water

    Osmosis and the Egg Lab Report  By: N. Mullins  Date: January 20‚ 2011    Introduction  This lab was designed to explain the different things osmosis does. Osmosis is the  diffusion of water across a semi permeable membrane. Over three days we tested the egg  in three different solutions to observe the changes. On Day 1‚ the main question we  answered was what happened to the egg when it was placed in vinegar? Before doing this  I came to my hypothesis was that the vinegar would eat away at the shell and eventually

    modern society our perspectives on issues have altered. Out of the many of the push factors that Ireland was faced with the “Great Potato Famine” was the basis for many people immigrating. Many other reasons that the Irish had begun to immigrate were from political reasons‚ rising poverty levels‚ and spread of disease. The famine during 1847- 1852‚ lead to the potato harvest to fail year after year. This resulted in the increase of food cost‚ forcing the middle class to become poor. This issue had

    the beaker of water for a longer period of time‚ then more water will travel through the selectively permeable membrane due to the effects of diffusion on the solution. If the level of sucrose within the solution increases‚ then the effects of osmosis will cause the change in mass to also increase due to higher concentrations of sucrose and the increased net movement of the water molecules within the solution. Analysis - When the glucose and starch solution was placed in the beaker of water for

    My First Lab Report: Diffusion and Osmosis To begin‚ this is my first time doing an experiment and a lab report for biology’s class. Although‚ it was a little hard at the beginning‚ my team and I got the hang of it and we finished it on time. It was actually kind of fun. There were three steps in the experiment: 3.1 A – Molecular Movement: In this session‚ I was observing a sample and determining if there was a movement or not. 3.1B –Diffusion through semi-permeable membrane dialysis tube: In this

    EXPERIMENT TO SHOW THE EFFECT OF DIFFERENT CONCENTRATION OF GLUCOSE ON POTATO STRIPS INTRODUCTION: Molecules of liquid and gas are constantly in motion‚ they move randomly in all directions and bounce around in all directions and bounce around and into each other. As they move‚ they tend to spread out moving from areas with many molecules to areas with fewer molecules . This process of spreading out is called Diffusion‚ for example smell of cooking travelling around the house from the kitchen

    Anjali Patel Riley Egan‚ Nick Morrison 10/2/13 Block 2 LAB REPORT OUTLINE FOR DIFFUSION/OSMOSIS LAB Introduction: Diffusion is the net movement of small or uncharged molecules or substances from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration. There is simple diffusion‚ as explained‚ and facilitated diffusion. Facilitated diffusion‚ on the other hand‚ involves larger or charged molecules or substances that need a protein tunnel through the membrane to help the substance enter and

    Factors affecting the movement of water through osmosis Introduction In this I will be investigating what effects the movement of water through osmosis. Osmosis is the diffusion of water. It is the process in which fluids pass through a partially-permeable membrane. It is the movement of water from high water concentration to low water concentration. Plant cells react to osmosis by hypertonic‚ isotonic and hypotonic. Keywords Hypertonic – is when the water outside of the cell is lower than

    As discussed in the intro‚ the purpose of this lab is to observe principles of homeostasis and osmosis in action. The results of this experiment showed that eggs placed in a 4 M sucrose solution lost mass over time and had the greatest percent difference in mass compared to the eggs in other solutions‚ with the 4 M egg having an average of -25.13% difference in mass. The 0.0 M solution egg only had a 12.28 average percent difference in mass‚ the 0.5 M egg with 10.39%‚ and the 1 M egg with the least
