    Diffusion and Osmosis Worksheet Diffusion is the movement of particles from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration. It is a natural‚ random process. This means that it does not require extra energy input. 1a. These are pictures of molecules frozen at two different times. Draw arrows to show the direction each particle might travel due to diffusion in diagrams A and B. A. B. Random arrows Random arrows 1b. Describe the way the particles

    Group 2 Science Investigatory Project I Title: Potato Battery II Objective: We only need a potato‚ a couple nails and a piece of wire to make a potato battery. It’s a fun science project that helps show the way things work in a battery by using everyday items we see around the house. The goal is to learn more about electricity‚ and possibly a few new science terms along the way. III Materials: * Two Potatoes * Two short pieces of heavy copper wire * Two common galvanized nails

    LAB 10: NAME: DaeNia La Rodé DATE: 25TH January‚ 2011. FORM CLASS: L6 3 SUBJECT: Biology TITLE: Enzymes AIM: To investigate the effect of substrate concentration on the enzyme amylase INTRODUCTION: Enzymes are perhaps one of the most important proteins of the human body. Enzymes such as amylase‚ an enzyme that breaks down carbohydrates‚ work by means of surface catalysis. In other words‚ the surface of the enzyme enables other molecules to react in a manner they would not be able to without

    Joshua Annan Biology Section-04 Diffusion and Osmosis December 14‚2012 Alexis‚ Adiba‚ Elliot and Joey Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to get a better understanding of osmosis and diffusion in molecules. We will do this by studying different solutions and how they move through the permeable membrane. Hypothesis: The three different possible predictions were the lab were that the mass would stay the same‚ the mass will increase‚ or the mass will decrease

    Biology Lab T 10:50 The Effects of Alcohol on the Cell Membrane Introduction To understand the effects of alcohol on cell membranes can help one understand more about the effects of alcohol on human cells that are contained in the digestive system and the blood stream. It is important to study this effect due to the fact that it can lead to the understanding of the dangers of alcohol‚ over consumption‚ and even possibly alcohol poisoning. Performing this lab enables the students to have a firsthand

    Bath Salts or Designer Cathinones The principal active ingredient in bath salts MDPV (methylenedioxypryrovalerone) is a highly potent synthetic cathinone derivative. The Navy takes a zero tolerance stance when it comes to the use of synthetic drugs. According to SECNAV Instruction 5300.28D‚ the use of any controlled substances and designer drugs such as "bath salts" is prohibited and could result in discharge from the Navy. From the Seattle Weekly: “According to the feds‚ the drug first

    The aim of this experiment is to better understand the process of fermentation of yeast in different concentrations of sucrose. The experiment worked with yeast and sugar (sucrose and glucose) to determine the rate of fermentation by testing the pressure of C02 in the test tube. The experiment tested the metabolic capability of yeast anaerobically meaning no oxygen was present (this was ensured by the thin layer of oil on the top of the solution). This means that the metabolic rate of the yeast could

    high concentration‚ to an area of low concentration down a concentration gradient. It is a type of passive transport method‚ that requires no cellular energy (ATP). This movement occurs‚ until a state of equilibrium has been established on both sides of the membrane. The diffusion of molecules happens at cellular level‚ through a cell membrane via the pores. The cell membrane is a layer that’s located between the cell wall and the cytoplasm (containing organelles of the cell). The cell membrane

    rate of osmosis and diffusion‚ as well as the effect of molecular size of the particles on this rate. Part I of the lab was a demonstration of osmosis and diffusion‚ that dealt with raisins in different liquid environments‚ each with a different concentration of sugar. Part IV of the lab was using the same idea as the demonstration‚ by putting objects in different concentrations of a substance; in this case elodea leaves in salt water. In both cases‚ the objects in a greater concentration of the substance
