5. the effects of osmosis exhibited by Elodea plant cells
1. brownian movement (demo)
effects of osmosis on cells: relative tonicity
group # "cell" solution environment (beaker) solution
1 25% sucrose distilled water
2 distilled water 25% sucrose
3 50% sucrose distilled water
4 distilled water 50% sucrose
5 25% sucrose 50% sucrose
6 50% sucrose 25% sucrose
7 (control) 25% sucrose 25% sucrose

osmotic pressure
simple diffusion is a form of passive transport.
A
and on plant cells
to calculate % weight change
1. subtract your end weight from your start weight
(start weight - end weight)
2. divide this difference by your start weight
3. multiply this quotient by 100%
