Summary comparing and contrasting plant cell vs animal cell in the three solutions:

	Hypotonic Solution	Hypertonic Solution
Plant Cell - Elodea	the central vacule swells, but the cell wall prevents the cell from bursting	inside of cell shrinks and pulls away from the cell wall; cell walls stay in place
Animal Cell - Human blood	swells and eventually lyses (breaks apart)	cell shrinks and gets smaller and smaller until it dies

1

Paramecium belong to the Kingdom Protista. Since you observed how the paramecium responded in the different solutions, predict whether paramecium are more closely related to the Animal Kingdom or the Plant Kingdom.

Review Question: All three of these cells share the following characteristics: have a cell membrane, have cytoplasm, have genetic material, and have ribosomes.

1

If you were sick and in the hospital, especially with something like the flu where you might become dehydrated, you may receive an IV of saline solution to return your body to homeostasis. What is the concentration of the IV saline (salt) solution?

The concentration of salt is 0.9% in human red blood cells.

1

Often movies or stories tell about a person ship-wrecked on an island or stranded on a life raft in the ocean without any access to fresh water. Explain why drinking the ocean water isn't a good idea.

The concentration of salt averages between 3 to 4% in ocean sea water.

PART F: Movement of particles in solids and liquids

1

Based on what you learned from this video "The Effect of Molecular Weight on Rate of Diffusion" comparing a hydrogen molecule and a oxygen molecule, predict whether methylene blue, blue dye, C16H18ClN3S , molecules diffusses faster than potassium permanganate, purple dye, KMnO4.

Look at the molecular formula of each substance

After viewing "Diffusion Through a Semi-permeable Membrane", answer the next questions.

Where is the iodine at the start of the experiment?

1

Where are the starch molecules?

1

Why are the starch molecules confined to the bag?

1

What is the final color of the solution inside the bag and why?

1

What would happen if the starch molecules could pass out of the bag?

1

Based on the information from these experiments, speculate on whether a sulfate ion would move across the dialysis membrane.

1

Based on the information from these experiments, speculate on whether a large protein molecule would be able to move across the dialysis membrane.

1

Review: Some of the substances were permeable (able to pass through) to the dialysis tubing. Which ones?

1

Review: In each case, the molecules moved from a lower to a higher concentration.
