Learning Goals:
- To model a cell with a cell membrane.
- Explain changes that occur in a cell as a result of diffusion.
- Distinguish between hypertonic and hypotonic solutions.
- Relate this lab to the importance of solution concentrations in everyday life.
Key Cencepts: measuring mass; difusion; osmosis; hypertonic, hypotonic and isotonic solutions; cell membrane structure and function correlation.
