    of different concentrations of saline solution on Red Blood Cells. When a Red Blood Cell is submersed in a high concentration of saline solution it will create a hypertonic environment and therefore cause the cell to rupture due to the process of osmosis. The methods used to collect data were observation and note taking. Overall the results proved the hypothesis correct with major findings being a higher concentration of salt causing a hypotonic environment and a low concentration. Recommendations

    Introduction: Diffusion and osmosis are passive processes of transport. Passive transport involves no disbursement of energy by the cell. Diffusion movement is from high concentration to low concentration‚ which the driving force for this type of movement is kinetic energy particles themselves. Which crystal (Methylene blue‚ solid or Potassium Permanganate KMnO4-purple) will move further than the other due to the driving force (kinetic energy)? My prediction is that Potassium Permanganate KMnO4-

    The Effect of Concentration Gradient on Osmosis Abstract: Osmosis is the passive movement of water from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration‚ usually across a membrane (Thorpe 2013). Tonicity is the ability of a solution surrounding a cell to gain or lose water (Reece 2011). There are many factors that affect the rate of osmosis. These include temperature‚ surface area‚ difference in water potential‚ pressure‚ light and dark and most importantly what we will be talking

    Diffusion‚ Osmosis and Active Transport Substances will move through the membrane by diffusion. This is the random spreading out of particles until they are even. For example‚ when you put your instant coffee in boiling water‚ the coffee particles spread out and fill the entire mug‚ this is diffusion. A second way that substances can move through the cell membrane is by osmosis. This is a special type of diffusion where water moves from a high to a low concentration through a ’partially permeable

    Wierzchon A.P. Biology Lab: 1. Osmosis 09/10/2010 I. Introduction a. Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to observe the diffusion process of waterosmosis‚ as well as create an understanding of water potential‚ the basis of osmosis. The experiment proved how water molecules in a solution are able to move from an area of low solute concentration‚ high water concentration‚ to an area of high solute concentration‚ low water concentration‚ diffusing “down” the water gradient. The movement of
