Biology Lab Report - Movement in and out of cells (4A) Shiang Chen Ting (24) Sec 313 Introduction The aim of this experiment is to explore the factors which affect the movement of materials in and out of the cells. The dark red or purple colour of Beetroots is caused by a pigment called betalain that is found within the vacuole of the beetroot cells. The pigment remains intact within the cell if the cells are not “stressed” by the external environment. In this exploration‚ two factors that affect

Describe two variables that affect the rate of diffusion. ___ Two variables that affect rate of diffusion are molecule size and plasma membrane composition. A larger molecule will diffuse more slowly than a smaller molecule. The lipid content of the plasma membrane determines permeability of certain molecules. A

Water molecules move from high to low Osmosis is what they seem to know Solute and Solvent are what’s inside The polarity of water makes it easy to find “Hyper” and “Hypo” tells you how much is there But isotonic means that they are fair Water molecules move from the inside out Scientists call this plasmolysis without a doubt All of this happens inside a membrane It is a serious matter‚ not a fun little game When a membrane is selective it chooses what it wants Few things are moved through

| 2012 | | Toby Rheinberger Lab Partner: Jeremy Saba | [The Effect of surface area to volume ratio and solute concentration on osmosis.] | The aim of this experiment was to test the effect of surface area on osmosis and the effect of solute concentration on osmosis. To test this aim to hypotheses were devised. 1) If potato pieces are immersed in various salt solutions‚ then the pieces with the greatest surface area to volume ratio will experience the greatest weight change‚ because more

concentration to a region of lower concentration. Diffusion is the net movement of molecules down their concentration gradient. Diffusion can occur in gases‚ in liquids‚ or through solids. Osmosis is the process of water moving across the membrane from an area of high concentration to low concentration. Osmosis is a special case of diffusion where now water is moving across the membrane. [3]This process continues until both sides of the membrane are at a dynamic equilibrium state. A hypertonic solution

begin this lab you should understand: - the mechanisms of diffusion and osmosis and their importance to cells - the concept of water potential - the relationship between solute concentration‚ pressure potential and the water potential of a solution - the concept of molarity and its relationship to osmotic concentration **also read the section on water potential in the text book ** (Chapter 36 pp. 749-751 in 6th ed. of Biology by Campbell‚ Reece & Mitchell) At the completion of this lab you should

do not affect tonicity because they will always be in equal concentrations on both sides of the membrane. Also‚ water will flow from a hypotonic solution to hypertonic. 4- Explain the direction of osmosis and effects of tonicity (hypotonic‚ hypertonic‚ or isotonic) in plant and animal cells. Use lab results in your explanation. If a cell is placed in an isotonic solution‚ the cell will maintain its normal volume because no osmotic pressure is occurred. A hypotonic solution has a lower concentration

and Isotonic Solutions Affect the Water Movement of a Cell? Purpose: The purpose of this activity is to teach students about osmosis and the effects of hypotonic‚ hypertonic‚ and isotonic solutions on animal cells. This lab is designed for high school biology students but may be adapted for middle school students. Objectives: The students will be able to describe osmosis and differentiate between the effects of hypotonic‚ hypertonic‚ and isotonic solutions on animal cells and determine the equilibrium
