Biology 107 Section 1 11/4/13 Diffusion & Osmosis Introduction The purpose in this experiment was to estimate the osmolarity of potato tuber and celery cells by change of weight.Pieces of potato tuber and celery would be incubated in different sucrose solutions to find out the molarity at which weight of potato and celery tissues do not change. My hypothesis was that the Table 1: Group Data for Experiment:Estimating Osmolarity by Change in Weight Table

Ronald Wilson Pd:4th 11/16/12 Introduction In this experiment diffusion and osmosis is the main idea. When using diffusion and osmosis you are trying to separate different solute concentrations on either side of the membrane. Only a solute’s relative concentration‚ or water potential‚ affects the rate of osmosis. The higher the concentration of solutes‚ the faster water will flow through the membrane to equalize the concentration. The way we describe the movement from higher to lower concentration

Critique of a Nursing Theory April 30‚ 2010 Critique of a Nursing Theory This is a critique of Myra Estrin Levine’s conservation principles model. I will be discussing the meaning of the theory of the four principles; conservation of energy‚ conservation of structural integrity‚ conservation of personal integrity‚ and conservation of social integrity. I will be using the criterion-based model (C-BaC) as a focus of the positive aspects of the theory‚ as outlined by Johnson & Webber (Johnson
