Abstract
Osmosis is an important phenomenon for several plant and animal life functions. Like any other small molecule, water moves from one side of membrane to the other by diffusion. The diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane however is given a special name, osmosis. To understand osmosis, the designed experiment has been conducted as discussed in this laboratory report. This experiment begins with a dialysis tubing which is selectively permeable and is filled with water and sugar syrup. This tubing is then submerged in beaker with water and syrup. The experiment is conducted with three tubing and beakers with varied combination ...
