TRANSCRIPT
Requirements
• 24 boiling tubes• 12 cork borer • 12 tiles• 12 pens• 12 racks• Cling film• Potatoes
• Demo osmometer
• No worksheets
Objectives
• Students should learn:• that water often moves across boundaries by
osmosis and why it is important• that osmosis is the diffusion of water through a
partially-permeable membrane from a dilute to a more concentrated solution
• that differences in concentrations of solutes inside and outside cells cause water to move by osmosis.
Outcomes
• Most students should be able to:• define osmosis• distinguish between diffusion and osmosis• carry out an experiment to find out about the process
of osmosis• explain the results of experiments in terms of osmotic
movement of water.• Some students should also be able to:• explain the importance of osmosis in plants and
animals.
Specification
• Dissolved substances move by diffusion and by active transport. [B3.1.1 a)]
• Water often moves across boundaries by osmosis. Osmosis is the diffusion of water from a dilute to a more concentrated solution through a partially permeable membrane that allows the passage of water molecules. [B3.1.1 b)]
• Differences in the concentrations of the solutions inside and outside a cell cause water to move into or out of the cell by osmosis. [B3.1.1 c)]
• Controlled Assessment: B4.5 Analyse and interpret primary and secondary data. [B4.5.4 a)]
Which way does the flow go?
AimsIn this activity you will think about the flow of money. This can help you to understand osmosis. TaskImagine that there are three friends, all of whom have overdrafts at the bank. They meet up and compare their finances. They decide that whoever is the most overdrawn should get money from anyone who is less in debt than they are. This means that money will move from an account where there is more money, to an account where there is less money.
In the same way, water will move across a partially permeable membrane from where there is more water to where there is less water. This is called osmosis. On the diagram below, draw an arrow to show the direction in which the water will move.

define osmosis
• osmosis is the … of water through a … membrane from a … to a … solution

Comparing osmosis and diffusionDiffusion• Movement of any very
small particle• From a high to low
concentration• Doesn’t have to pass
through a barrier
• Kinetic energy from particles
Osmosis• Movement of water
molecules only• From a dilute to a
concentrated solution• Passes through a
partially permeable membrane
• Kinetic energy from particles

The effect of osmosis on animal and plant cells
• Animal cells• In a concentrated solution
lose water by osmosis and shrink
• In a dilute solution take in water by osmosis and burst as the cell membrane is weak
• Plant cells• In a concentrated solution
the cytoplasm and cell membrane shrink away from the cell wall = plasmolysed cell/flaccid
• In a dilute solution take in water and the cytoplasm pushes out on the cell wall = turgid/firm cell

• Osmosis• Partially permeable• Diffusion of water molecules• Dilute solution• More concentrated solution
Osmosis in potato tissue
Have you ever wondered why they store the cut chips in slightly salty water in the
chip shop before they fry?
Method• Each group will need:
1. 2 x boiling tubes2. 1 x tube rack3. 1 x marker pen (?)4. 2 x potato chips (fair testing???)5. 1 x 20 cm3 syringe (for?)6. Some Cling film (?)7. Repeats / reliability (?)
• Label the boiling tubes with the treatment and your initials.• Using the syringe, add 20 cm3 of the sugar solution to each tube.• Cut the potato chips to exactly 30 mm.• Record initial length in mm on your results table.• Put the chips into the boiling tubes (one per tube) and cover with cling film.• Place tubes into your group’s tube rack and put carefully onto the side bench.
Draw a blank results table (?)
