OSMOSIS: MOVING OF WATER ACROSS THE CELL
MEMBRANE
1. INTRODUCTION:
Framework: In this part, you will search information on the internet about the topic in
which you will be working in the laboratory: Cell membrane, Cell transportation, type
of cell transports and osmosis
2. Objective:
Using a lab simulation, we will be allowed to observe the movement of water through
cell membranes during the process of osmosis.
INQUIRING AND DESIGNING (Criterion B)
3. Defining the Problem or Question:
What question(s) are you trying to answer? Write one to two sentences explaining
why we are doing this lab- what we were trying to find out, what question we were
trying to answer, or what problem we were trying to solve. Ex: Our research
question was: Does the pig’s heart have the same parts and functions of the
human’s heart?
4. Variables:
Variables are the part of your experiment that you will change and measure. In a
scientific inquiry you will change only one type of thing, and only measure one type of
thing. The independent variable is the one you purposely change and the dependent
variable is what changes and is measured
5. Hypothesis: Write a possible solution for the problem, this is your prediction.
This is written as a complete sentence. Make sure the statement is testable. A
typical hypothesis is an “If ….then” statement. The statement should reference
the independent and dependent variables: such as “The plant group receiving
fertilizer (independent variable) will produce more fruit (dependent variable)
than the plants that did not receive fertilizer (independent variable)
6. Materials: Make a list of all items used in the lab, including quantities (do not
include safety materials).
7. Procedure: Write a numbered list which explains what you did in the lab. Your
procedure should be written so that anyone else could repeat the experiment.
PROCESSING AND EVALUATING (Criterion C)
8. Observations and Raw Data:
This section contains a summary of your data in the form of graphs, tables, diagrams,
calculations, etc. All of these should be labeled appropriately. This section can also
include written observations.
Written observations. (Qualitative) – descriptions such as sights, sounds, smells, etc.
you have observed during your experiment
Processed data table: table that appears in the virtual lab, Patterns.
Answer questions from the journey (virtual Lab)
Evaluate the hypothesis.
9. Conclusion:
Write at least 3 paragraphs writing the conclusion(s) that you arrived about
this topic. Each paragraph should be at least 3 lines long.
10. References: without them the lab report will be considered as plagiarism.
