U-Tube Diagram
The following diagram illustrates a U-shaped tube that contains a semi-permeable
membrane that separates the left and right sides. In figure A, the left side contains water
(blue) and the right side contains a solution (red). After 24 hours, the results are
illustrated in figure B.
a)
b)
1. Does the semi-permeable membrane allow for the movement of solution? What
is your evidence?
2. Does the semi-permeable membrane allow for the movement of water? What is
your evidence?
3. Has the left and right side of the tube reached equilibrium? What is your
evidence?
4. Explain how the experiment demonstrates osmosis. Include tonicity (hyper, hypo,
or iso) in your explanation.
