Cell Diffusion (currently under construction)

Using Word and Excel to publish your results answer the following questions and complete the following experiment.

What is diffusion?
* The movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

What is osmosis?
* The movement of water across a selectively permeable membrane, such as the cell membrane, which allows only certain molecules to pass through.

Can you demonstrate these two processes using a gummy bear?

Write a hypothesis and a prediction.

Set up an experiment, identify your controls, variables and what you are going to measure.

List your steps, in a logical and specific order

Create a data table in Excel for your observations. Import this into Word. Convert the data table into a graph. Import this into Word as well.

Write an explanation of your results and conclusion. Use your data to support your explanation.

Upload your assignment.
