Predict Question 2: Recall that glucose is a monosaccharide‚ albumin is a protein with 607 amino acids‚ and the average molecular weight of a single amino acid is 135 g/mole. Which of the following will be able to diffuse through the 200 MWCO membrane? Your answer : c. glucose only Stop & Think Questions: The reason sodium chloride didn’t diffuse left to right is that You correctly answered: c. the membrane pore size was too small. Glucose is a six-carbon sugar. Albumin is a protein with 607 amino

my Hypothesis. 3. Describe the results of the attempts to diffuse glucose and albumin through the 200 MWCO membrane. How well did the results compare with your prediction? The glucose diffused through the 200 MCWO membrane while the albumin didnt. 4. Put the following in order from smallest to largest molecular weight: glucose‚ sodium chloride‚ albumin‚ and urea. Sodium chloride urea glucose albumin Activity 2 Simulated Facilitated Diffusion 1. Explain one way in

tested the blood glucose level of diabetic and non-diabetic people every 30 minutes starting from right before a meal was eaten up until two hours. I did this by measuring the amount of light absorbed by the solutions through a spectrophotometer. By doing so I found that for diabetics the maximum blood glucose increased more quickly than non-diabetics‚ which increased and decreased at a steady rate. With this information I was able to determine that the damaging effects of glucose molecules would

how different concentrations of glucose affect osmosis in potato cells. Osmosis is the passive process of diffusing water which means within this experiment particles of water will move from a lower concentrated area to an area of higher concentration ; in this case it will be a concentration of glucose. Diffusion is when particles move from an area of high concentration to low concentration ; for example when a smell of cooking spreads through the house. Osmosis is a vital mechanism in the transport

NaCl Effects on Peroxidase Activity My experiment was to see if adding NaCl to solution would have any effects on peroxidase activity. The materials that were used in this experiment were pH 7 buffer(DI water)‚ peroxidase‚ NaCl‚ guaiacol and hydrogen peroxide; added in that order. Blanks were created for each NaCl concentration‚ 0%‚ 5%‚ 7.5% and 10%. Each cuvette had .5ml of pH 7 buffer‚ 1ml of peroxidase‚ .02ml guaiacol for the experimental cuvettes and 0ml of guaiacol for the blank cuvettes‚

DETERMINING THE GLUCOSE CONTENT OF AND ORANGE USING GOD-PAP ASSAY Every fruit has a sweet taste only that some are sweeter than others. The sweetness of most fruits come from its sugar content and these sugars that the fruits contain are known as invert sugars. In this experiment‚ an orange was used. An orange which is an excellent source of vitamin C gets its sweetness from natural sugars which are sucrose‚ glucose and fructose (livestrong.com). In this experiment the concentration of glucose in an orange

Sugar Metabolism Title: The effectiveness of glucose and fructose metabolism in individuals of resting and exercising observed through blood glucose concentration. Aim: To study the mechanisms of the body involved in absorbing and metabolizing sugar in the form of glucose and fructose and examine the effect of exercise on the rate of removal of glucose from the bloodstream. Introduction: The blood glucose concentration in the blood is interceded by the human body via negative feedback mechanism

Osmosis is the diffusion of a solvent across a selectively permeable membrane that occurs in response to differences in solute concentrations (Allen and Harper 2014).Osmosis can fall under the category of passive transport which does not require energy. With osmosis being a type of diffusion it is viewed as molecules moving from a high concentration to a low concentration. To further explain if there is a low water concentration‚ high amounts of solutes will be present. Water will most likely move

Abstract Literature on Van’t Hoff’s law states that water potentials and zero weight change osmolalities will be the same for potato cores placed in varying concentrations of solutes of NaCl‚ glucose‚ and sucrose. This experiment was designed to test these predictions and compare them to data gathered course wide. We found that the mean water potentials were all within 0.26 bars of each other‚ and that the zero weight change osmolalities were all within 0.035 mols of each other. This supported Van’t
