    find the concentration (mole/dm3 (M)) of solute in a potato cell by using the process of osmosis and different concentrations of sucrose solution. Background information Osmosis is diffusion of water across a partially permeable membrane. It moves from a solution with less solute concentration (high water potential) to a solution with more solute concentration (low water potential). The one with a high water concentration is called a hypotonic solution and the low water concentration is called

    Osmosis Lab Report by Evan Gerber Claire Cambron First Lab Report Wednesday 10:30am February 20‚ 2013 Theresa Gburek Abstract The major objective of the experiment was to test the effect of the concentration gradient on the diffusion rate. It was hypothesized that the greater the stronger the concentration gradient‚ the faster the rate of diffusion would be. To test this‚ dialysis tubes were submerged in different concentration fructose solutions. We weighed the tubes at specific

    different sliced up potatoes chips in solutions. The solution was different concentration of salt and water‚ one was 5% sugar‚ one 10%‚ one 15%‚ one 20% and one 30% salt concentration. We measured the mass of the potatoes chip before and after we put it into the solution. To keep the experiment fair we only changed one variable which was the salt concentration. The results that we got showed the chip went up in mass for 0% salt concentration and 5% salt concentration but for 10%‚ 15%‚ 20%

    Osmosis The purpose of this lab is to study how membranes of plant and animal cells react when exposed to different solutions. The first experiment involves purple onion skin and the second involves rat blood in various solutions. I needed to understand certain terms before preforming this lab to be able to efficiently explain what is happening to the cells. Diffusion is the tendency of a substance to move down its concentration gradient from a more concentrated to a less concentrated area.

    germination is the uptake of water by the seed. This is the part where osmosis takes place. Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane in which the water moves from a high concentration to an area where there are water molecules with a low concentration. Osmosis is similar to diffusion in the way mentioned earlier with the molecules moving from high to low concentration. Another similarity that osmosis shares with diffusion is that both processes work as passive transports

    Consequently‚ osmosis is leveling the concentrations on both sides of the membrane. However‚ the higher the temperature is‚ the higher osmosis will perform within the plant cell. When the molecules are heated‚ they start to move faster‚ causing osmosis to perform faster than at a neutral temperature. Temperature is just one of the many factors that can affect osmosis‚ such as‚ the pressure (the less pressure‚ the molecules will move leisurely

    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.
