Introduction The movement of water molecules across a semi-permeable membrane is the process of osmosis. If there is a solute and a solvent‚ each containing different concentration levels‚ then the water would move along its concentration gradient until each side of the membrane are equal. The water moves because the membrane is impermeable to the solute and the solute concentrations may differ on either side of the membrane. Water molecules may move in and out of the cell‚ but there is no net diffusion

Observing osmosis‚ plasmoylsis and turgor in plant cells Investigation * Get a single layer of plant cells. If you are using red onion‚ cut a 1 cm square from a fleshy piece of onion and then peel off a single layer of the red cells. If you are using rhubarb‚ peel a piece from the epidermis. If you are using toadflax peel a piece of the lower epidermis of a leaf. * Place the strip on a slide and cover it with a drop or two of distilled water. Add a cover slip. * Look at the cells through

What pH Level Causes a Plant to Grow Best Alexis Chavez‚ Heather Nutt‚ Nguyen Phan Introduction We knew that water is normally stated as the best form of liquid to make sure plants grow as best as they can‚ but we wanted to know if causing the water to be more basic or more acidic would affect how the plant grew. Our hypothesis was that if the plant is treated with a pH of 12 then treated with another pH. Materials The materials used were three identical plants‚ that each had 4 sections that were

Practical 1- An experiment to observe the features of an Onion Cells Method: Gather all equipment that will be used for the experiment and check that they are clean and undamaged. Using forceps‚ peel the membrane from the underside of a small piece of onion. Place the membrane flat on a clean‚ glass slide and add one drop of iodine solution. Use a pin to carefully lower the cover slip over the slide‚ ensure there are no air bubbles before the use of the slide. Set the microscope to its lowest

Functionality At Various Ph Level Abstract Enzymes can be denatured at various ph levels in which then affects the shape of the enzymes structure and reactivity. The altering of shape causes substrates to not bind in the active site (Scott Freeman‚ Micheal Harrington‚ Joan. C Sharp‚ 2009). Amylase is used as a catalytic enzyme to determine the time period to convert starch into glucose monomers and transport into the bloodstream at different ph levels. Methods involved

The Effect of Salt Concentration on Osmosis in Potato Cells We should first explain what Osmosis is. It’s a passage of water from a region of high water concentration through membrane to a region of low water. Semi membrane is a very thin layer of material‚ which allows some things to pass through them but prevent other things from passing through. The cells allow small molecules like Oxygen‚ water‚ Carbon Dioxide‚ Ammonia. But will not allow larger molecules like Sucrose‚ Starch‚ or protein‚ etc

Amylopectin The absorbance value(x) read from cuvette containing starch and water represents the total amount of starch-iodine complex. The absorbance value(y) read from cuvette containing starch‚ water and α-amylase at the respective temperature or pH represents the amount of starch-iodine complex which is left after the enzyme has hydrolyzed the starch.In order to get the amount of product;P (maltose and glucose) formed‚ need to subtract the (y) value from the (x) value.
