Cell Biology - Osmosis

What is osmosis?

The net movement of water molecules from a dilute solution to a more concentrated solution through a semi-permeable membrane

What type of process is osmosis?

A passive process as it does not require energy

Water moving in/out of cells via osmosis depends on what?

The difference in concentration of the cytoplasm compared to the solution outside of the cell

What factors affect the rate of osmosis?

-Higher temperature = increased rate
-Higher surface area = increased rate

-Higher concentration gradient = increased rate

What happens when cells are in a dilute solution?

Water moves into cells via osmosis

-Animal cells can swell and can burst

-Plant cells swell but don't burst due to cell wall (Turgid)

What happens when cells are in a solution of the same concentration as their cytoplasm?

There is no net movement of water in/out of cells (no osmosis)

What happens when cells are in a concentrated solution?

What moves out of cells via osmosis

-Animal cells can shrink and shrivel up

-In plant cells the vacuole shrinks and cytoplasm can pull away from the cell wall (Plasmolyzed)

Osmosis Practicle Method

1-Prepare potato cylinders:
-Use a borer to cut out 6 cylinders,ensuring same length and diameter;weigh and record enitial mass


2-Prepare solutions:

-Prepare 6 boiling tubes, each containing different concentrations of sugar of salt solution;include a boiling tube with water as a control


3-Soak the cylinders:

-Place one cylinder into each boiling tube while keeping track of which cylinder goes in which solution;allow cylinders to soak for a specific time e.g. 40 mins


4-Measure the changes:

-Carefully remove each cylinder from its solution and blot dry with a paper towel, and measure again;calculate the percentage change in mass for each cylinder


Repeat experiment multiple times for each solution to ensure accuracy and ignore ang anomalous results


5-Analyse the results:

-Plot a graph of percentage change in mass again concentration of solution
