Diffusion of responsibility is a pervasive socio-psychological phenomenon that is deeply entrenched in all societies. This tends to occur when the size of a group reaches a certain threshold and individuals within the group assume that others will take action or have already intervened‚ commonly resulting in the collective inaction by potential helpers. Another contributing factor is the gender of the individual in need for help which affects the action/inaction of the individuals in the group. The

Michelle Yeung Bio 101 Cyrus MacFoy June 16‚2015 Diffusion and Osmosis Exercise I. Molecules are always in constant movement. Molecular motion is a form of energy‚ the kinetic energy of molecules. The Brownian movement is the movement of small particles caused by the bombardment of the particles by millions of water molecule. This movement will continue indefinitely as long as there is water. My prediction for this lab is the solution of the water is hypertonic meaning there is a higher concentration

observed the effect in pollen floating in water‚ where it is visible with the naked eye. Through experimentation‚ Brown determined that the specks of pollen were not propelling themselves independently‚ but rather that their motion was pseudo-random. Jean Perrin‚ a French physicist who later won the Nobel prize‚ spring boarded off of Einstein’s work. Using Brownian motion as evidence‚ he proved in 1911‚ once and for all‚ that matter is made of atoms and molecules. Diffusion Diffusion‚ also called

Diffusion of Buddhism and Christianity Siddhartha Gautama‚ better known simply as Buddha‚ first followed the Hindu religion but then later realized that the cast system from Hindu was immoral and decided to leave his earthly possessions to find what he believed to be nirvana‚ which resulted in the creation of Buddhism. Christianity originated from the teachings of Jesus Christ‚ who created a religion that came from Judaism which attracted all women and minorities and was later spread mainly by

doubted himself. Grant Achatz‚ is the only American chef to master the art of Molecular Gastronomy. People sought after progressive cuisine to at least experience it once. This family man and cancer survivor is a prime example of heroism. With knowledge of molecular gastronomy‚ there’s some weight to his name. Being able to take foods and give them new tastes and textures‚ is what gave his cuisine’s popularity. Molecular gastronomy is seen as “manipulating” the ingredients‚ instead of cooking them

pressure in the maggots’ chamber decreases‚ causing air to be drawn into the chamber‚ and therefore displacing the fluid. This double chambered respirometer‚ allows you to measure the pressure changes‚ due to the presence of a control tube. The rate of oxygen intake is measured by recording the distance the dye moves up the scale. We then calculate the mean and multiply by ?r².

Diffusion and Osmosis Diffusion -the process by which molecules spread from areas of high concentratiion‚ to areas of low concentration. When the molecules are even throughout a space - it is called EQUILIBRIUM DIFFUSION Concentration gradient - a difference between concentrations in a space. Molecules will always move down the concentration gradient‚ toward areas of lesser concentration. Think of food coloring that spreads out in a glass of water‚ or air freshener sprayed in a room

Adapted from Flinn Scientific Publication No. 10110 Introduction: Diffusion is one of the very important processes by which substances such as nutrients‚ water‚ oxygen‚ and cellular wasted are transported between living cells and their environment. This activity will help you explore the relationship between diffusion and cell size by experimenting with model “cells.”
