The purpose of this lab was to observe how molarity concentration affects diffusion.The lab was primarily based on osmosis and diffusion. Diffusion is when the movement of molecules from a high concentration that go to a low concentration to a high concentration to eventually reach an equilibrium. Osmosis is when water will diffuse from high water concentration to low water concentration to reach equilibrium. When the solutions are different the lower concentration solute is hypotonic while the higher

tissue in sucrose solutions of different concentrations and measuring the changes in mass of the apple cores. The changes in mass reflect the movement of water into or out of the tissue. After determining the concentration of sucrose solution at which there is no net gain or loss of water from the apple tissue‚ the osmotic potential can be calculated. This will then tell the water potential of the apple cells. Research Question and Hypothesis: How will changing the concentration of sucrose in solutions

(a) (i) ● the concentrated sucrose solution in X has a lower water potential than the water in flask A (1)-water from flask A moved into X by osmosis (1) ● generated a hydrostatic pressure that forced the contents in X (with the dye) to move into Y (1) via the tubing L (ii) ● tubing M channelled water from flask B to flask A (1) ● this resulted in a continual supply of water for mass flow (1) ● M = *Xylem (1) (iii) X‚ sucrose formed by the photosynthetic

one result of this molecular movement. Diffusion is the random movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration. 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 net movement will occur from one

Diffusion & Osmosis: Introduction: This experiment was performed to demonstrate the process of osmosis and to show visible as well as quantitative evidence proving that osmosis occurred. Through the tasks of determining the percent concentrations in two different solutions‚ we were studying the process of osmosis. Osmosis is the best way to perform this experiment because as we went through the experiment‚ the weight of the beaker/dialysis tubing changed and the only logical explanation was

Big Idea 2 Biological systems utilize free energy and molecular building blocks to grow‚ to reproduce and to maintain dynamic homeostasis. Living systems require both free energy and matter to maintain order‚ grow and reproduce. Organisms employ various strategies to capture‚ use and store free energy and other vital resources. Energy deficiencies are not only detrimental to individual organisms; they also can cause disruptions at the population and ecosystem levels. Biological systems must both
