Lab Report INTRODUCTION: This experiment is being done to find out what happens to a carrot or a potato if you place them in two different solutions. Osmosis has a lot to do with this experiment and is the movement of water molecules from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. Osmosis only deals with water and is a type of diffusion. The difference between all three solutions is that in a hypertonic solution the cells fluid rushes out of the cell and causes it to shrivel. In a hypotonic

the acid in lactate acid‚ it interfere with electrical signals in muscles and nerves‚ slows energy reactions‚ and impairs muscle contraction. The burn up we feel in intense exercise is the cause of hydrogen ion. During this experiment(Muscle fatigue lab) it will be seen that after a while of squeezing a small ball there won’t be the same amount of energy that was started with first and you will feel a burn in your arms which makes you feel hurt and don’t do a lot of squeezing; which is called the

experiment 1 was to demonstrate the principle of simple diffusion and understand how to make % solutions. Exercise 2 demonstrated the principle of osmosis: observing the movement of water by osmosis from an area of lower concentration of a solute to an area of higher concentration of a solute. Materials and Method: Refer to pages 47-51 of Bio 203L Lab Manual. Results/ Discussion: The effect of the chloride ion on its rate of diffusion in agar means it will diffuse faster because it is more

Egg Osmosis Lab The purpose of this lab was to demonstrate an example of a spontaneous reaction and its connection to metabolism; in this case it was osmosis. The procedures that we used to complete the experiment were taking five eggs that had been soaked in a sucrose solution and then placing each one in containers of sucrose that each had different levels of concentration. The mass of each egg was measured before being placed into the solutions and then every 10 minutes after until they had soaked

Sophie Murdock Osmosis Lab Osmosis in Plant Cells: Solution Initial Volume (mL) Final Volume (mL) Percent Change Distilled Water 0.8 1.0 125% 0.4% NaCl 0.5 0.8 160% 0.9% NaCl 0.6 0.8 133% 5% NaCl 0.6 0.5 83% 10% NaCl 0.6 0.5 83% 8. The cells in the solutions of distilled water‚ 0.4% NaCl‚ and 0.9% NaCl would all appear to be inflated and could burst. This is due to the fact that the solution is hypotonic to the potato‚ thus water is entering the cell. Meanwhile‚ the cells in the solutions

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

Title: Egg Osmosis Purpose: The purpose for doing this lab is to show how Osmosis takes place. It is supposed to show how the eggs would react to a change in their environment. The way to show how it would change would be putting eggs in different controlled environments. Each of the eggs will be put in three different environments. Vinegar‚ Karo Syrup‚ and water. Each egg will have to have a documented reaction that each will have. Introduction: The lab will allow us to see and explain each

is facilitating the transport of materials needed for survival. Cell membranes aren’t in just one specific kind of cell because it’s in every cell. The cell membrane is supposed to hold up the structure of the cell keeping all organisms in alignment. Osmosis is the movement of solvent molecules through a partially permeable membrane into a region of higher solute concentration‚ in order to equalize the solute concentrations on the two sides. We didn ’t know anything about osmosis except that it was

The Effect of Osmosis on a Potato Cell October 12th 2012 Osmosis Lab Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to investigate the effects of osmosis on a potato cell as it is immersed for a period of time in solutions of different water concentrations. Hypothesis: If the potato is immersed into the distilled water‚ then it will be the heaviest out of the three. This is because water is at the lower is moving toward the area of higher concentration‚ which in this case is the potato. This
