Osmosis Diffusion and Moving Cellular Materials - PowerPoint & Handouts. Students will create a manipulative notes sheet about how the cell membrane is selectively permeable using the terms endocytosis, exocytosis, osmosis, transport proteins, active transport, and passive transport. They will then put what they learn to the test with an osmosis lab. Using grapes and raisins, students will see how osmosis occurs within the cell when these items are placed into a variety of solutions. Grapes

Osmosis Lab Activity Egg Diffusion and Osmosis Cell Transport Egg Inquiry
Your students will LOVE this Diffusion and Osmosis lab activity, an 'Egg-speriment', which engages them in measuring and observing an egg as it changes drastically when soaked in various liquids! The vinegar dissolves the shell, leaving the cell membranes as the gateway to lots of excitement! This becomes a memorable way to drive home the concept of cell membrane passive transport processes! And even if you don't teach cell transport processes, this is a creative, fun experiment for back to scho

Osmosis Lab Activity: Diffusion and Passive Cell Transport
About 7 years ago I was running a gummy bear osmosis lab and my gummy bears completely failed. They broke apart and were impossible to measure. I created this lab using water beads (like Orbees) to be certain the gummy bear disaster did not happen again! I have been using the lab successfully ever since! This 3 day osmosis lab uses water beads instead of the typical gummy bear or egg. Water beads are cheap and store for YEARS compared to food based labs. Students LOVE the water beads and get so

Cell Cellular Membrane Transport Lab Osmosis and Diffusion
This cell transport lab will give your students a hands-on and up-close view of osmosis, diffusion, and plasmolysis in living cells. This lab has two different activities. In the first part of this lab, the observation of plasmolysis in a living cell is a qualitative measurement. The student will be observing the process of plasmolysis while viewing cells under the microscope. In the second part of the lab, the student will quantitatively study plasmolysis by measuring the amount of water lo

In this lab, students will watch through their microscopes as plasmolysis occurs in living cells. This lab will demonstrate to students how concentration gradients affect the movement of water across membranes. Osmosis, diffusion, and the concentration gradient become real to students as they observe the collapse of Elodea cells. Students will also gain experience and confidence as they improve their microscopy skills. Prior to carrying out this lab, students will need to have a basic understa

Gummy Bear (or Worms) 'Osmosis or Diffusion?' Lab
This is a fun lab for students to explore the process of osmosis. They love this lab because they get to use Gummy Bears (or Gummy Worms if you like or both), even though they cannot eat them (I usually buy extra gummy bears so they can eat them the next day when they do their second observations) and they get to use the lab equipment, such as the Triple Beam Balance. This activity includes a graph so they can create a bar graph to compare the percent changes that occur to the length, width, and
