    Osmosis is the net movement of water from a high concentration of water to a low concentration of water down a concentration gradient. This is done to equalise the solute concentrations on the two sides. Therefore‚ in other words‚ the movement of water is depended on the concentration of dissolved solute in the water (in this case the sucrose) and if there are a higher concentration of sucrose in the visking tubing‚ the water in the beaker will move into the visking tubing to make both solution balanced

    My Investigation on osmosis Osmosis is a special kind of diffusion. While diffusion can describe the movement of any kind of molecule‚ osmosis is only about the movement of water molecules. To show this diffusion I will be using potato discs‚ of the same size and mass‚ in different concentrations of sugar solution to find out whether the mass of the discs increases or decreases depending on the concentration. I predict that when the sugar solution is 0% the mass will increase as there is

    effect of varying concentration of a differing glucose solution on the amount of osmotic activity‚ between the solution and a potato tuber of a given size. The purpose of this experiment is to demonstrate how living cells rely on osmosis‚ the diffusion of water.   Osmosis is the movement of water molecules (H20) 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 membrane such as a cell wall

    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

    Experimental Laboratory Report: An investigation into the rate of osmosis Liana Gohery - 98332250 12/12/2014 Word count - ………3000……….. 1. Abstract This study was conducted to investigate the effect of concentration gradients on the rate of osmosis. Osmosis is the cellular transport of water‚ this study was conducted to show the significance of the rate at which this occurs. Dialysis bags were filled with three different concentrations of sucrose solutions and two with water. They were

    Mateo BS AT - 1A NSCI 121 Assignment no.1 (Finals) 1.)What is Osmosis? Osmosis is the diffusion of the movement of water from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration through a cell membrane or other semi-permeable membrane until an equilibrium is reached. It is a special case of diffusion (passive transport).  Basic Explanation : Osmosis can occur when there is a partially permeable membrane‚ such as a cell

    Investigation of Factors Affect Osmosis in Potatoes  Aim  The aim of the following experiment was to investigate the effect of  varying the concentration of sucrose solution on osmosis in a potato.  Preliminary Experiments  One preliminary experiment was done before the main experiment. From  the preliminary‚ we were trying to find out how osmosis actually  occurred in potatoes‚ and gave us a vague idea on what the main  experiment would be like.  This preliminary will aid my prediction
