Potato Osmosis Biology SL - ATh INVESTIGATION ?Potato Osmosis? INTRODUCTION Osmosis is a process that occurs at a cellular level that entails the spontaneous net movement of water through a semi-permeable membrane from a region of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration in order to equalize the level of water in each region. Involved in this process are hypotonic, hypertonic and isotonic solutions. A hypotonic solution is one with a lower osmotic pressure, indicating that the net movement of water moves into the said solution whereas a hypertonic solution is one with a higher osmotic pressure, thus the net movement of water will be leaving the hypertonic solution. Lastly, an isotonic solution entails no net

Independent and Dependent Variables An independent variable is a factor that is manipulated in an experiment.? The experimenter controls whether or not subjects are exposed to the independent variable.?? The dependent variable is measured to determine if the manipulation of the independent variable had any effect.? For example,?? to test a hypothesis that eating carrots improves vision, the experimenter would manipulate whether or not subjects ate carrots.? Thus, eating carrots is the independent variable.? Each subject?s vision would be tested to see if carrot eating had any effect.? Thus, vision is the dependent variable.? The subjects assigned to eat carrots are in the experimental group, whereas subjects not eating carrots are in the control group. ?

Analyses Osmosis and Diffusion Osmosis and Diffusion are processes of passive transport. In this lab we studied the basic concepts of molecular movement in solutions. During the execution of the experiment, I became aware that molecules are in constant motion and tend to move from areas of higher concentration to those of lower concentration. Diffusion is the movement of molecules following that concentration gradient. It occurs on the diverse states of matter. Osmosis refers to the specialized diffusion of molecules of water through a selectively permeable membrane.

DIGESTIVE SYSTEM - Transfers nutrients, salts, H2O and vitamins in food from external to internal environment Anatomy: Digestive tract (gastrointestinal (GI) tract) Mouth -> Pharynx -> Esophagus -> Stomach -> Small intestine -> Large intestine -> Anus DIGESTIVE SYSTEM Digestive System: Mouth: - teeth = mastication (incisors, canines, molars) -3 pairs salivary glands secrete saliva: 1) moistens and lubricates food 2) amylase DIGESTIVE SYSTEM Digestive System Organs Pharynx and Esophagus - transport food and water to stomach - swallowing reflex: epiglottis As food approaches stomach, sphincter relaxes so food can go into stomach Sphincter closes -> Prevents acid reflux DIGESTIVE SYSTEM

AP Biology James Pre-Lab: Diffusion and Osmosis in Model Systems In parts 1 and 2 of this lab, you will have the opportunity to investigate the processes of diffusion and osmosis in model membrane systems. You will also investigate the effect of solute concentration on water potential as it relates to living plant tissues. Objectives: At the completion of this AP laboratory, you should be able to: Describe the mechanisms of diffusion and osmosis. Describe how solute size and molar concentration affect the process of diffusion through a selectively-permeable membrane. Describe the relationship between solutions that are hypotonic, hypertonic, or isotonic. Design an experiment to demonstrate water potential.
