  • Three processes contribute to the movement of substances into and out of cells: diffusion, osmosis and active transport.
  • For an organism to function, substances must move into and out of cells.
  • Diffusion is the process of mixing particles.
  • Osmosis is the process where water moves across a membrane.
  • Active transport is the process where substances move against a concentration gradient.
  • Diffusion, osmosis and active transport are three different ways for substances to move into and out of cells.
  • Percentage change in mass is calculated by dividing the difference in mass at the end and the start by the initial mass and multiplying by 100.
  • The changes in mass, as percentages, must be calculated for each potato cylinder.
  • For the potato cylinder placed in a sucrose concentration of 0.2 mol dm -3 , the change in mass as a percentage is 4.7%.
  • Diffusion, osmosis and active transport are important for an organism to function.
  • Some of the values obtained for percentage change in mass will be positive, some will be negative.
  • For the potato cylinder in the distilled water, the percentage change in mass is 26.6%.
