Unit 6 Quiz Flashcards
Diffusion
movement of molecules from a region of high concentration to a region of lower concentration (can happen through air, solvents, etc)
solvent-
liquid
solute-
solid particle
solution-
solvent + solute
water is considered the universal
solvent
but not all things can dissolve in it
osmosis
diffusion of water.
Movement of H2O (water) from a high concentration of H2O to a lower concentration of H2O
Factors that effect the rate of diffusion
- temperature- (the warmer it is, the faster something will diffuse)
- size of molecule- (smaller the molecule, the quicker it will diffuse)
Tonicity
comparing solute concentration of one solution to the solute concentration of another solution
isotonic
equal
hypertonic
more solute
hypotonic
less solute
Hypertonic Animal Cell
water leaves cell, cell shrinks and shrivels.
Crenate
Hypertonic Plant Cell
plasmolyzed
Hypotonic Animal Cell
Water goes in cell, cell fills and fills and then explodes
Lyse
Hypotonic Plant Cell
Turgid
Differentially Permeable
Selectively Permeable
Semi-permeable
.?
Membrane made of
phospholipids.
heads are hydrophilic
tails are hydrophobic
Can
- small polar molecules (H2O)
2. hydrophobic molecules
Can’t
- large polar molecules
2. ions (charged particles)
Selective Permeability testing
glucose starch protein chloride sulfate
Glucose
Reagent= Benedict’s
Have to use a third factor (heat) then you get
positive outcome= burnt orange
Starch
Reagent= Iodine
Positive Outcome= black
Protein
Reagent= Biuret
Positive Outcome= Purple
Chloride
Reagent= Silver Nitrate
Positive Outcome= Milky White
Sulfate
Reagent= Barium Chloride
Positive Outcome= precipitate (cloudy looking with stuff in it?)
