Three processes contribute to the movement of substances into and out of cells:
diffusion
,
osmosis
and
active transport.
View source
For an organism to function,
substances
must move
into
and
out
of cells.
View source
Diffusion
is the process of
mixing particles.
View source
Osmosis
is the process where
water
moves across a
membrane.
View source
Active transport
is the process where
substances
move
against
a
concentration gradient.
View source
Diffusion
,
osmosis
and
active transport
are three different ways for substances to move into and out of cells.
View source
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.
View source
The changes in
mass
, as
percentages
, must be calculated for each
potato cylinder.
View source
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
%.
View source
Diffusion
,
osmosis
and
active transport
are important for an organism to function.
View source
Some of the values obtained for percentage change in mass will be
positive
, some will be
negative.
View source
For the potato cylinder in the distilled water, the percentage change in mass is
26.6
%.
