(9)Before you arrive for the Diffusion and Osmosis lab, please
1. Read the lab thoroughly, noting all safety guidelines.
2. Answer these preparatory questions:
What safety procedures should you be sure to follow during this lab period?

What causes Brownian movement?_______________________________________
Define diffusion?______________________________________________________
Name the factors that affect diffusion, and identify the factor that is most important in living things.

Why are biological membranes and dialysis tubing considered to be differentially permeable?
______________________________________________________________________
Why would a nonpolar molecule pass across a cell membrane more readily than a polar molecule? Recall the “fluid mosaic model” of membrane structure as you answer this question.

Which property of a molecule allows it to pass through dialysis tubing, while other molecules can not pass through the dialysis tubing?

What color is produced when iodine is combined with starch?________________
What is the difference between osmosis and diffusion?______________________
_____________________________________________________________________
Consider the beaker and model cell above. Both the cell and environment (beaker) contain sucrose solutions. The model cell is impermeable to sucrose, but is permeable to water.
Is the cell hypertonic, hypotonic, or isotonic to the solution in the beaker?______
Will the cell shrink or swell?_____________________________________________
By what process will this occur?__________________________________________
What is water potential?________________________________________________
If water potential in an environment is higher than its surroundings, does water flow into or out of that environment?
_____________________________________________________________________
Imagine some cut flowers sitting in water. For water to move through the stems to the upper leaves, where must water potential be higher--in the stem, or in the leaves?
______________________________________________________________________
95% water
20%Sucrose
