(3-6 pm) OSMOSIS LAB REPORT INTRODUCTION Osmosis is a special type of diffusion where water molecules move down a concentration gradient across a cell membrane. The solute (dissolved substance) concentration affects the rate of osmosis causing it either to speed the process up or slow it down. Based on this‚ how does different concentrations of sucrose affect the rate of osmosis? If sucrose concentration increases in the selectivity-permeable baggies‚ then the rate of osmosis will increase

My Investigation on osmosis Osmosis is a special kind of diffusion. While diffusion can describe the movement of any kind of molecule‚ osmosis is only about the movement of water molecules. To show this diffusion I will be using potato discs‚ of the same size and mass‚ in different concentrations of sugar solution to find out whether the mass of the discs increases or decreases depending on the concentration. I predict that when the sugar solution is 0% the mass will increase as there is

Introduction: This experiment was used to examine the hypothesis that: Osmosis is dependent on the concentrations of the substances involved. Diffusion is the passage of solute molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration (Campbell & Reece‚ 2005). An example is ammonia diffusing throughout a room. A solute is one of two components in a chemical solution. The solute is the substance dissolved in the solution. The solvent‚ the other component‚ is any liquid in

Osmosis Rates in Artificial Cells Daniel George Department of Biology Grand Valley State University 1 Campus Drive Allendale‚ MI 49401 georged@mail.gvsu.edu Abstract The lab for this paper was conducted for the topic of osmosis‚ the movement of water from high to low concentration. Five artificial cells were created‚ each being filled with different concentrated solutions of sucrose. These artificial cells were placed in hypertonic‚ hypotonic‚ or isotonic solutions for a period of 90
