For Learning Centre use only Activity 1: Simulating Dialysis (Simple Diffusion) Lab Report Review Sheet Results 1. 2. Describe two Variables that affect the rate of diffusion. The two variables that affect the rate of diffusion are: A. The size of the molecule. The larger molecule will diffuse more slowly than the smaller molecule. B. The nature of plasma membrane. If the membrane is composed of lipid portion.‚ only lipid soluble molecules can pass through while water molecules

A passive process‚ diffusion / osmosis is the movement of solute molecules from an area of greater concentration to an area of lesser concentration. 2. A solution surrounding a cell is hypertonic if: a. it contains fewer nonpenetrating solute particles than the interior of the cell. b. it contains

Which did not? Why? Albumin‚ because it is too large to diffuse Activity 2: Simulating Dialysis 1. What happens to the urea concentration in the left beaker (the patient)? Its concentration gradient changes and causes it to move down 2. Why does this occur? It happened because the more concentrated it became it causes the molecules to move down. Facilitated Diffusion Activity 3: Facilitated Diffusion 1. At a given glucose concentration‚ how does the amount of time it takes

Cell Transport Mechanisms and Permeability 1 EXERCISE 1 OBJECTIVES 1. To define the following terms: differential permeability‚ passive and active processes of transport‚ diffusion (simple diffusion‚ facilitated dif- fusion‚ and osmosis)‚ solute pump‚ pinocytosis‚ and phagocytosis. 2. To describe the processes that account for the movement of sub- stances across the plasma membrane‚ and to indicate the driving force for each. 3. To determine which way substances will move passively

experiments were conducted. These tests were done over simple diffusion‚ facilitated diffusion‚ osmosis‚ filtration‚ and active transport by changing and observing different variables and how they affect transport through the membrane. Obtained was the understanding of the changing of the molecular weight cut off in a membrane‚ and how it does not play a part directly in changing the rate of diffusion‚ but instead determined if diffusion was accomplishable at all. Knowledge on the size of molecules

Why not? 2. Did Na+Cl- move through the 50 MWCO membrane? Activity 2: 1. Are the solutes moving with or against their concentration gradient in facilitated diffusion? 2. What happened to the rate of facilitated diffusion when the number of carrier proteins was increased? 3. In the simulation you added Na+Cl- to test its effect on glucose diffusion. Explain why there was no effect. Activity 3: 1. Which membrane resulted in the greatest pressure with Na+Cl- as the solute? Why? 2. Explain
