    My First Lab Report: Diffusion and Osmosis To begin‚ this is my first time doing an experiment and a lab report for biology’s class. Although‚ it was a little hard at the beginning‚ my team and I got the hang of it and we finished it on time. It was actually kind of fun. There were three steps in the experiment: 3.1 A – Molecular Movement: In this session‚ I was observing a sample and determining if there was a movement or not. 3.1B –Diffusion through semi-permeable membrane dialysis tube: In this

    Title: Potato Osmosis Abstract: In this experiment was designed to study the effect of a concentrated solution applied to white and sweet potatoes. The solution’s impact among the potatoes were to be either hypertonic‚ hypotonic‚ or isotonic. The potatoes were first cut into fries with a fry cutter‚ and then weighed after being cut. The white and sweet potatoes’ weights ranged from .005-.015 grams. A total of 18 sugar solutions are to be made over the course of 3 trials. In each trial‚ 6 different

    Assignment Energy Transfer in living systems Energy is the capacity to do work. All living organisms require energy for carrying on their vital metabolic activities. The primary source of energy for living system is solar radiation. The radiant energy of sunlight cannot be utilized directly by all living organisms. This ability rests only with the green plants. All the other organisms have to meet their energy requirement only through the green plants. Energy that flows in the living system is called bio-energy

    Introduction: The purpose of this lab was to observe passive transport of molecules through diffusion and osmosis. We had to keep close observation on two dialysis bags and explain how we measured the change in weight as diffusion and osmosis occurred throughout the experiment. Cells produce an energy called Kinetic Energy.  This causes molecules of the cell to move around and bump into each other. Diffusion is one result of this molecular movement.  Diffusion is the passive movement of molecules

    Osmosis and diffusion are sometimes mixed up without much thought‚ but they are very different in many ways. Osmosis is a defined as the movement of water through a semipermeable membrane (). The membrane is fully permeable for the small water molecules‚ but is selectively permeable to any substance that is lager that a normal water molecule. One example might be a glucose and water mixture‚ when the solute is put into one side of a U-shaped tube that has a semipermeable membrane between the solvent

    Lab Topic: Movement of Materials Across the Cell Membrane—Potato Tuber Cells Introduction: Osmosis is a form of diffusion in which water diffuses through a selectively permeable membrane from a region of high concentration to a region of lower concentration. This form of diffusion takes place when the molecules in high concentration are too large to move through the membrane. Three factors that determine cell membrane permeability are shape‚ size‚ and polarity. For this experiment‚ it must

    partially supported because glucose left the bag and is proven by the positive test on the surrounding water. Also the beaker turned orange because of osmosis which attests to glucose leaving the bag. Iodine Potassium Iodine and water entered the bag. This was proven by the color change in the starch test as the bag turned black also because of osmosis. The only thing that the hypothesis lacked was that starch did not move at all. The beaker stayed yellow before and after because the bag is not permeable

    Harvesting Wheat From the ancient times‚ wheat has been the major crop that makes people survive. To this day‚ we still rely on wheat to fill our stomachs. When people think of the agriculture of California‚ they don’t have their first thought on wheat. However‚ wheat is grown throughout the whole state. California was once said of having the finest wheat in the nation‚ and we have the largest milling capacity of all states. With such a great weather fertile land and a huge landmass‚ California

    My research focused on living situations. I wanted to compare the living situations of living alone versus living with one or more people‚ and find the advantages and disadvantages to both. I started by creating by survey with questions based on different aspects of everyday living that may differ from one living alone to one living with roommates. These questions gave me an idea of the stress level‚ study habits‚ sleep habits‚ number of times they go home‚ overall living preference‚ and self-declared
