Passive Transport

Diffusion is the movement of particles

from an area of high concentration to

an area of low concentration. Osmosis

is the diffusion of water through a

selectively permeable membrane.

arrows between beakers tell you

what process is occurring.

1. In the beakers on the right,

draw the result of the described

process. Draw changes in water

levels. Draw changes in the number

of solute particles. Remember to

draw on both sides of the

membrane.

2. Look at the top left beaker. What

would happen if the membrane did

not allow water or solute particles

to pass through it?

water would move from right side to left

What happened to dinner?

Jenny’s family planned to attend her brother’s basketball game on a school night. Her mother cooked spaghetti sauce. Jenny offered to make the salad and cook the spaghetti. First, Jenny washed the lettuce. Then, he sliced tomatoes, cucumbers, and radishes. Next, Jenny put some pepper, herbs, oil, and vinegar on the vegetables. Finally, he tossed the salad, covered it, and placed it in the refrigerator. Jenny read the directions for cooking a pound of spaghetti. He was surprised to see that he needed five quarts of water to boil the spaghetti. Jenny read the label on the box and found that the food was made from ground-up plants. Jenny slid the dry spaghetti into the boiling water and waited while it cooked. He drained the spaghetti. It took up much more space now than it had before it was cooked. Almost all the water in the pot was gone. What had happened to the water and the dry spaghetti? Jenny took the salad from the refrigerator. The vegetables were no longer crisp. There was more liquid in the salad bowl than he had added. What had happened to the veggies?

Analyzing the Problem:

  1. How did the dry spaghetti increase in size? _____water entered the wheat cells, causing them to swell (osmosis) ______
  1. Where did the liquid in the salad bowl come from? ___water exited the lettuce cells (osmosis) ______

Solving the Problem:

  1. When Jenny made the salad, were more water molecules inside or outside the plant cells? Choose one.
  1. What happens when the number of water molecules is greater inside a cell than outside?

molecules of water will move out of the cell (also solutes may move in)

  1. How does your answer to number 2 help to explain what happened to the vegetables in the salad?

Because the conc of water was greater inside the cells than outside, there was a net movement of water OUT of the cells. The water was seen collecting at the bottom of the bowl (outside the cells)

  1. When Jenny put dry spaghetti into boiling water, was there more water inside or outside the food?
  1. What happens when the number of water molecules is greater in one area than another area?

Osmosis will occur - movement from high water conc area to low water conc area

  1. How does your answer to number 5 help to explain what happened to the spaghetti?

Water moved from an area of higher conc (in the pot of water) to the area of lower conc (inside the wheat cells in the spaghetti) - so the cells swelled and increased in size as they took in water.

5. ___hypertonic environment means there is a GREATER concentration of solute molecules OUTSIDE the cell than inside.

6. _ hypo tonic environment means there is a LOWER concentration of solute molecules OUTSIDE the cell than inside.

7. ______isotonic environment means there is the SAME concentration of solute molecules outside the cell as inside.

8. The pressure inside a plant cell caused by water pushing against the cell wall is called ______turgor____ pressure.

9. The SWELLING AND BURSTING of animal cells when water enters is called ___cytolysis______.

10. This happens when a cell is placed in a _____ hypo tonic solution.

11. Placing plant cells in a HYPOTONIC solution causes

the osmotic pressure to ______.

increase decrease

12. The SHRINKING of plant cells when water leaves so the cell membrane

pulls away from the cell wall is called ____plasmolysis___. It happens when a plant cell is placed into _____hypertonic solution.

13. When water leaves a plant cell, the osmotic pressure will _____decrease______.

increase decrease

14. The shrinking of ANIMAL cells that are placed in a HYPERTONIC solution is called __plasmolysis______.

15. Cells stay the same size when placed in an _____isotonic solution because the amount of water leaving the cell is the same and the amount of water entering.

16. If the solute (dots) in this diagram is unable to pass through the dividing membrane, what will happen?

A. the water level will rise on the right side of the tube

B. the water level will rise on the left side of the tube

C. the water level will stay equal on the two sides

17. Analyze the diagrams below and answer the questions inside the boxes.

Condition 1: iodine will move left to right; water will move right to left. Water level on left side will rise.

Condition 2: iodine will not move since the membrane is impermeable; water willl still move right to left so water level on left side will again rise

Cell Transport HW #7 (see pages 9-12 of your notes)

Predicting the directions of osmosis

2. 3/97 inside cell; 5/95 outside. water will move out of cell; shrink; solution is hypertonic

3. 20/80 inside cell; 20/80 outside. water will move equally in/out; stay same size; isotonic
