Lab 5: Osmosis Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to familiarize you with osmosis and‚ specifically‚ what happens to cells when they are exposed to solutions of differing tonicities. Hypothesis: If we add higher concentrations of sugar to the dialysis tubing‚ then the net movement of coffee into the dialysis tubing will increase. Materials scale or balance 24" dialysis tubing 4 transfer pipets sugar scissors rubber bands four coffee cups - they need to be roughly the same size

Hands On Approach to Diffusion and Osmosis Abstract A. Plant and Animal Cell Diffusion and Osmosis In this experiment we observed carmine powder to better understand the concept of Brownian motion and the role of molecular movement in diffusion. The particles continuously moved in a completely random fashion‚ and the smaller particles moved with more speed than the larger particles. B. Potato Core Experiment In this experiment we estimated the osmolarity of potato tuber tissue

In the exciting year of 2007‚ the film There Will Be Blood was released. With Paul Thomas Anderson as both the screenwriter and director‚ it was going to be an interesting movie. The actors of the film had some likeability to them as well‚ it not being your everyday cast. Daniel Day-Lewis‚ Paul Dano‚ Kevin J. O’Connor‚ and Russell Harvard put together such an amazing cast‚ there is a reason why it has eight out of ten stars. This film will leave you wanting one of those unwanted sequels they pin

The Royal And Pontifical Blood Of the University Of Santo Tomas “It is said that blood is thicker than water‚ it is what binds us‚ defines us‚ curses us. For some blood means a life of wealth and privilege‚ for others a life of servitude.” –Words spoken from a recent movie I have watched. It means a lot for some people‚ and it may mean nothing at all to others. For me it asks the question ‘What does “blood is thicker than water” mean?’ a question that leads to new set questions of why and how‚

membrane OBJECTIVES: To investigate the effect of concentration of blackcurrant squash on osmosis in chipped potatoes. INTRODUCTION: In biology‚ osmosis is defined as the diffusion of solvent molecules (usually water molecules) across a semi-permeable membrane from a region of lower solute concentration to a region of higher solute concentration. Osmosis is of great importance in biological processes where the solvent is water. The transport

the Rate of Osmosis Using “De-shelled” Chicken Eggs INTRODUCTION: In order to fully understand the concept of this experiment‚ one must first be introduced to diffusion. Diffusion is a spontaneous process by which molecule particles move from one area that is highly concentrated to another area in which its concentration is lower. Cells contain fluids and are surrounded by fluids; in order for a cell to function it is required to be in a balanced state. The progress in which a cell is in its balanced

Diffusion and Osmosis Exercise I. Molecules are always in constant movement. Molecular motion is a form of energy‚ the kinetic energy of molecules. The Brownian movement is the movement of small particles caused by the bombardment of the particles by millions of water molecule. This movement will continue indefinitely as long as there is water. My prediction for this lab is the solution of the water is hypertonic meaning there is a higher concentration of solutes outside of the cell. To test my prediction

two potatoes remained firm. There was also an awful odor that only came from the potato in the tap water. Conclusion: The hypothesis was correct. The 40% salt solution killed the sailor. This solution was hypertonic which causes osmosis to move the water out of the cell. The sailor then became too dehydrated and died. Salt absorbs water‚ which is why drinking salt water is not good for

the potato chip compared to the concentration of water molecules outside the potato chip. It was stated in my prediction that osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules from a high to a low concentration‚ therefore water molecules from inside the potato chip moved out into the solution. Leading to the cytoplasm inside the cells to shrink and become flaccid. As the cells of the potato chip have lost water they now weigh less than they did before. When the potato chips were placed in a solution

giving an hour of your day? I wasn’t aware of how many people I can help until there was a blood drive at my high school. The blood drive was run by the ARUP Blood Services and I learned a ton about donating blood. Before you donate you can talk to a representative and learn more about donating blood. I learned that the blood donated can be stored for about 28 days until it goes bad. The phlebotomist told me blood donations are given to several patients who need transfusions to live. If there are many
