some questions have sub category questions within them. thank you
1: what factors affect that rate of diffusion?
2: what conditions would produce the fastest rate of diffusion?
3: state in which direction water will flow ( into the bag, out of the bag, or in and out at an equal rate ). then justify your answeres using terms hypotonic, hepertonic and isotonic, sub category questions too please.
A: beaker contains 40 % sucrose solution; bag contains 40% sucrose solution
B: beaker contains 25% sucrose solution; bag contains 35% sucrose solution
C: beaker contains 40% sucrose solution; bag contains plain water
D: beaker contains 21% sucrose solution; bag contains 20% sucrose solution
4:? make three drawings on a seprate paper to showing the directions of water movement in the following conditions of tonicity /
a: the solution in the beaker is hypotonic to the solution in the bag
B: the solution in the beaker is herpertonic to the soltuion in the bag
C: the solution in the beaker is isotonic to the solution in the bag
5:?what is the tonicity of a surrounding solution whihc causes plant cells to undergo plasmolysis? Describe the appearance of these cells
?6: what happens to red blood cells when they are placed in a hypertonic solution?
7: How do the red blood cells appear compared to normal red blood cells?
