BIOLOGY 12

Mount Baker Secondary School Teacher: Mrs. D. Dupley

Room 200

Materials Required: ORGANIZED three-ring binder with a constant supply of looseleaf paper, ruler, pencil, and eraser

General Responsibilities:

Show up on time at the start of class Be prepared and be ‘with it’ (do readings, bringing a pencil, etc.) Respect the needs and learning rights of others Hand in assignments and labs on the due date

Attendance: Attendance is critical for your success in this course. Your teacher will follow up all absences. A note must accompany excused lates (medical, counseling, administration) or a phone call to my voice-mail 426-5241 ext. 722 from your parents.

Homework Website: A homework website is available to you and your parents to check test dates and due dates daily for all assignments. Visit www.mbss.sd5.bc.ca select Students or Parents found on the top menu, then select Class web Pages and then select Ms. Dupley.

Assignments, Labs and Exams: Any assignment, lab or activity not handed in on time will receive an “I”. All “I” letter grades must have a plan of action to help students achieve the learning outcome. In Biology, the plan of action to change the “I” will be to hand in the work before the graded assignments are returned in class and answers are discussed. If the plan of action is not met, then a zero is entered.

Examinations and quizzes will be given on all units studied in class. There are no rewrites. Short quizzes are written almost every week. Students are expected to write all exams on the day they are provided. A student that misses an exam will receive an “I” that is carried until the end of the semester when a make-up exam may be provided (providing a phone call has been received from your parents regarding illness). Personal holidays taken during instructional time will be the responsibility of the student to catch up independently on the information missed.

Assessment and Grading: Activities and labs comprise about 20% of the mark for the course. Quizzes and tests comprise about 80% of the mark for the course. The resulting mark will be reduced to a mark out of 75%; that will then be added to the final exam worth 25%. I have read and understood this outline Student Signature

STUDY TIPS FOR BIOLOGY 12 Welcome to Biology 12. I hope that you will find this course interesting, useful and enjoyable. I assume that you have an interest in this field and may be considering taking post-secondary courses in Biology. To this end, it is extremely important that you put forth your best effort, so that a fair assessment can be made of your ability. It is expected that you spend a minimum of ½ hour per night doing homework and/or reviewing. No HW is given on weekends to allow you time to catch up on the week's work. Frequent quizzes are given to help point out weak areas. Missed quizzes can be made up with a note explaining the absence. Excused tests may be made up at the end of the semester. There are many ways beside quizzes to check your understanding of the concepts covered. They are listed below. 1. Biology vocabulary can be very challenging. It is critical that you understand all of the words. The use of vocabulary lists and 'flash' cards will help you master the biological terms. 2. Make a chapter review after each chapter. This makes you try to summarize the key concepts, usually in a chart form. To make a good summary you must understand the material. This summary will be invaluable when you study for tests. I will make up the first couple as an example. 3. Past government exams are available on file and can be signed out. There is also a website that has all government exams and their answer keys. It can be reached through the school's site. 4. Before every exam, I will give you a list of possible exam questions. 5. On my class webpage (reached through the school's webpage). All homework and test dates will be posted. 6. On every lab report, there are questions that will help you understand the concepts. DO NOT COPY lab reports. It is important that you work out the answers yourself. This will help you understand the work for the exams and quizzes. It is up to you to decide how much effort to put in to master the material.

Handing in Lab Reports in Biology 12 1. Every student is required to make their own individual copy of the lab. You name goes on the top right corner along with your period. 2. You may discuss answers/questions/conclusions with your lab partners. This is why you have a lab group. Your group must come to consensus on all the answers/questions/conclusions for your lab

report. 3. On the due date for your lab, you will be given time to look over each other’s lab report before I collect ALL of your lab reports.

If your own copy is not included, you will not receive a mark. 4. You are allowed to select one lab report that goes on top of the rest of the labs. As long as all the other labs beneath this one are complete,

I will base your group’s mark on the top lab. If a lab attached below is not complete, that person will get a separate mark from the rest of the group.

5. If you want to hand in your own work, You must work on all questions and conclusions by yourself, and you cannot have the benefit of asking your lab partners for answers. Although you performed the lab procedures with other people, you will do all the questions and conclusions by yourself in a different location. Do not share/discuss or get answers from the lab group that you performed the lab with.

Inductive and Deductive Reasoning

Both forms of reasoning are important in contributing to the scientific process. Deduction takes established Theories and allows scientists to make predictions about new situations. A scientist could also re-word a hypothesis and then make specific tests about new data. Induction is also called generalizing. It is the opposite of deduction. Induction allows scientists to take specific observations and develop an explanation of the observations called a theory.

The Nature of Science and the Scientific Method Although scientists and their particular science may differ in their focuses, scientists- biologists, chemists, physicists, geologists, and so forth, study the natural world and share scientific methods that usually include all of the following key features: observation, hypothesis, and testing a hypothesis using a controlled experiment. A hypothesis is a testable statement or tentative explanation for an observation made by a scientist. They test their hypotheses in a variety of ways, producing results that are open to verification by other experts. If other scientists repeatedly verify the results over a long period of time, a theory may be developed. Any experiment performed that tests a proper hypothesis has to have several characteristics that confirm the validity of the methods used to verify the results. Experiments must test only one variable to a set of controlled conditions. A theory comes from a well-supported and well-tested hypothesis. Unfortunately, many people misuse the meaning of the word theory. To the average Canadian, the word theory just means “I have an idea”, when in science, a theory is developed only after extensive testing confirms an idea (for now) over many years. Because a hallmark of science is the testable hypothesis, science does not try to explain philosophical, religious, or teleological questions such as “What is the meaning of life?” or “Does life exist after death?” within the framework of the scientific inquiry. This is not to say that these questions are not important; it is to say that they cannot be tested using scientific methods. Mistakes occur in science all the time. History is full of old theories that have been proven wrong or erroneous in many ways. This suggests that scientific theories are “falsifiable.” Within this ability to prove methods and theories as false lies sciences’ greatest strength – self-correction. If a mistake is made honestly or dishonestly, in time it will be “flushed out” of the system by the lack of verification by other experts. Science as a way of knowing allows us to avoid dogmatism, which is when a person bases a conclusion on authority rather than logic and evidence. Scientific progress is the cumulative growth of a system of knowledge over time, in which useful features are retained and non-useful features are abandoned, based on the rejection or confirmation of testable knowledge. Technology Allows us to apply the knowledge of science to everyday life so that we may be more productive.

Experimental Design: The Formal Hypothesis A hypothesis is a tentative, testable statement that proposes a possible explanation to some natural phenomena or event. It often contains a prediction as to the outcome. Parts of a Hypothesis The test of the hypothesis is the experiment. It is a test of how two variables might be related. The first is the dependent variable and it is the one that the experimenter observes and/or measures from the results that occur. The second variable is called the independent variable. This is the one that the experimenter controls. Formalized hypotheses are always written showing a relationship between these two kinds of variables using an “if-then” statement. Scientists devise a controlled experiment to test a given hypothesis. Formal hypotheses are always written in this fashion:

*If (dependent variable) is related to (independent variable), then (prediction)* Use the statements below to re-write the dependent and independent variable.

1. Candy causes tooth decay. 2. Cholesterol causes heart disease. 3. Ultraviolet light may cause skin cancer. 4. Cell phones cause brain tumors. 5. Temperature may cause leaves to change colour.

Dependent variables Independent variables

heated to 37 Celsius.

2. Oxygen, ADP, and glucose were added to each test tube. The amount of CO2 generated each second was recorded.

3. The results for test tube 1 are shown in the graph below. 4. The following steps were done 1400 sec. after the start of the experiment.

Test tube 2 Glucose is removed from the test tube

Test tube 3 Oxygen is removed from the test tube

Test tube 4 The temperature was raised to 60C and oxygen was removed

Test tube 5 A hormone called thyroxin was added to the test tube

The Atom It has electrons moving around its nucleus, which contains the protons and neutrons, in shells. Electrons with the most energy are found in the shells furthest from the nucleus. When atoms approach each other in a chemical reaction, only the electrons are involved. The chemical property of an atom depends mostly on the number of electrons in the outermost shell. These are called the valence electrons. Atoms with incomplete valence shells will interact with other atoms to complete their valence shell, either by sharing or transferring electrons. These interactions usually result in the atoms staying close together, held by attractions called chemical bonds. To simplify things, we will assume that the valence shells need 2,8,8,18 electrons. The making and breaking of chemical bonds, leading to changes in the composition of matter, are called chemical reactions. Covalent Bonds – the sharing of valence electrons by two atoms When a diagram is drawn to represent atoms sharing electrons, it is called a structural formula. Each line/bond represents the sharing of one pair of electrons. If two atoms share the electrons equally, a non-polar covalent bond is produced. If the electrons are shared unequally, as is the case when oxygen and hydrogen share, the electrons spend more time around the oxygen atom giving the oxygen a negative charge and the hydrogen a positive charge. This produces a polar covalent bond forming a polar molecule such as water. Ionic Bonds – electrons are transferred from one atom to another One atom is oxidizing forming a positive ion while the other is reduced forming a negative ion. The resulting opposite charges hold the two ions together to form an ionic compound. When placed in water the two ions are pulled apart by the charges on the water molecules. The separation of the two ions is called dissociation. Hydrogen Bonds Covalent bonds are important in living matter because they link the atoms of a cell's molecules. But bonding between molecules is also important. These types of bonds are weaker than covalent bonds, and sometimes hold molecules together only temporarily. Hydrogen bonds are extremely important to living things. They occur when a hydrogen atom covalently bonded to an electronegative atom, is also attracted to another electronegative atom. H bonds make water a good transport medium and give it good temperature stabilizing properties since the water molecules 'stick' together. This also makes water densest at four degrees Celsius, causing it to freeze from the top down. Molecular Shape Chemical bonds give a molecule its characteristic shape. Molecular shape is important because it is the basis for how most molecules of life recognize and respond to one another. A molecules shape helps determine its function.

17

Ionic and Covalent Bonds Both types of bonding occur in atoms so that they can “fill the octet rule”. Atoms will share or transfer electrons to fill their valence energy level. This creates a more stable electron configuration in the atom. In ionic bonds, the atom that loses an electron gets “oxidized” while the atom that receives the electron is said to be “reduced”. An easy way to remember redox reactions is by using the saying: LEO the lion says GER LEO – loss of electrons is oxidation GER – gaining electrons is reduction Metals on the periodic table tend to become oxidized while Nonmetals tend to become reduced in ionic bonds.

Dissociation of Water A B C Beaker A Water has a neutral pH. It has a pH of 7. Water will naturally dissociate into equal numbers of H+ and OH- and then reform back into water molecules repeatedly. By definition, a neutral pH is defined as any substance with equal numbers of H+ and OH- Beaker B Adding some hydrochloric acid to the neutral water changes the ratio of H+ and OH- in this beaker. Water will split the HCl into H+ and Cl-. This causes a greater number of H+ than OH- in the beaker. By definition, an acid can be defined as any substance with a greater amount of H+ than OH-. Beaker C Adding some sodium hydroxide to the neutral water changes the ratio of H+ and OH- in this beaker. Water will split the NaOH into Na+ and OH-. This causes a greater number of OH- than H+ in the beaker. By definition, a base can be defined as any substance with a greater amount of OH- than H .

Water is a polar molecule with partial charges on the hydrogens and the oxygen. A polar molecule is neutral overall but has regions of charge. Because water is polar, it causes hydrogen bonding to occur with other water molecules. A hydrogen bond occurs when a slightly positive H+ atom from one molecule of water is attracted to a slightly negative O- atom from a different molecule. This attraction does not destroy molecules of water but rather gives water its properties as a substance. Write down 5 properties of water due to hydrogen bonding.

Chemical Compounds of Life To understand living things, it is crucial to have knowledge of the four basic molecules that make them up. These are carbohydrates, proteins, lipids and nucleic acids. All of these are organic molecules that are they all contain carbon and hydrogen. Carbon is unique in that it has the ability to form covalent bonds with other carbon atoms to form large stable molecules. Here is a description of these four molecules. 1. Carbohydrates – contain C, H, O, with H and O present in a 2:1 ratio These function for 'quick' and short-term energy storage. They yield 3.8 calories per gram (about 16 Joules). There are 3 main types. (See diagrams) Monosaccharides contain 3 to 7 carbon atoms. Examples are glucose, fructose and galactose. They join together in various combinations to form disaccharides by the process of dehydration/condensation synthesis. Examples of double sugars are maltose, sucrose and lactose. Many glucose molecules join together to form polysaccharides, such as amylose/starch, cellulose, or glycogen. Molecules are split by adding water. The process is known as hydrolysis. Assignment – read pages 31 to 33 1. Define monomer, polymer, and macromolecule. 2. State the components of the three disaccharides. 3. State the function of starch, glycogen, and cellulose.

How do these molecules differ from one another? Which one can we not digest?

4. Be able to recognize their structure. Terms: monosaccharides, disaccharides, polysaccharides, hexose, pentose, glucose, fructose, galactose, lactose, maltose, sucrose, amylose (starch), glycogen, cellulose, dehydration/condensation synthesis, hydrolysis, isomer, polymer 2. Lipids – contain C, H, O and sometimes P These molecules do not dissolve in water. There are many types, including fats, oils, steroids, and waxes. Oils tend to be unsaturated and have an even number of carbons. They are liquid at room temperature. Saturated fats are solid at room temperature. Trans fatty acids and saturated fats are linked with plaque buildup in blood vessels. Lipids function as long term energy storage, padding, insulation, as some hormones, and in preventing water loss in arthropods, leaves and fruits. They yield 9.3 Calories per gram (39 Joules), about 3X as much as carbohydrates and proteins. (Fats and oils are formed when glycerol joins with three fatty acids (See diagrams). Fats are called triglycerides and neutral fats. Fats that contain phosphorus are called phospholipids and make up all membranes in cells. (See diagram) Assignment - Read pages 34 to 36 1. Memorize the structure of glycerol, an unsaturated fatty acid, and a saturated fatty acid, and a phospholipids. 2. Explain how soaps work. Be able to recognize a steroid. (Page 35)

Page 24: Biology 12 - portal.sd5.bc.ca€¦ · Scientific progress is the cumulative growth of a system of knowledge over time, in which useful features are retained and non-useful features

24

Terms: fatty acids, glycerol, phospholipids, saturated, unsaturated, hydrocarbon chain, carboxyl group, cholesterol, HDL, LDL, steroids, soap, emulsifier, emulsification 3. Proteins – contain C, H, O, N, and sometimes S They are composed of amino acids, from as few as 50, to several hundred. Proteins are the most abundant component of living things, making up 50% of the dry weight of living things, except plants (cellulose makes up the bulk). They have an energy yield of 3:1 Calories per gram (about 13 Joules). Amino acids join together to form dipeptides, polypeptide chains, and finally functional proteins. The bond that holds amino acids together is called a peptide bond. Examples of protein:

Structural proteins – collagen, silk, microtubules

Regulatory proteins – hormone (insulin)

Contractile proteins – actin, myosin (found in muscle cells)

Transport proteins – hemoglobin

Storage proteins – egg white (albumin)

Protective proteins – antibodies

Membrane proteins – antigens, membrane-transport protein

Enzymes – pepsin

Amino acids – 20 different kinds, each with the same backbone, but a different side chain. (See diagram) Assignment – read pages 37 to 39 1. Examine the different types of AA on page 37. 2. Explain the 4 levels of protein structure. Include the bonds

responsible. 3. Define denaturation. What effect does this have on a protein? 4. Memorize the structure of an amino acid and a dipeptide molecule. Terms: peptide bond, dipeptide molecule, polypeptide chain, amino group, deamination, side chain, backbone, denaturation.

4. Nucleic Acids These were discovered in the nucleus and are acidic when placed in water, thus their name, nucleic acids. There are two types, DNA and RNA, both are composed of nucleotides (See diagram). DNA is the hereditary molecule and it along with RNA, controls the cell activities. We will deal with these molecules in detail later. Assignment - read page 40 1. List two ways that an RNA nucleotide differs from a DNA nucleotide. 2. Memorize the three parts of a nucleotide. ATP – adenosine triphosphate This molecule is a nucleotide and is the universal energy carrier in cells. It is composed of the nitrogenous base adenine + ribose + 3 phosphates. When it loses a phosphate it is called ADP, or adenosine diphosphate and releases a large amount of energy that can be used by the cell to do work. When food is broken down in the mitochondrion, energy is released and can be used to convert ADP back to ATP. This cycle of ATP becoming ADP then ATP again is called the ATP or the Energy Cycle. Assignment – read page 41 1. Diagram and memorize the ATP molecule.

Aspartame: A Popular Synthetic Sweetener (for interest only) North Americans have developed quite a sweet tooth! Our annual per capita consumption of sugar has increased from less than 2 kg per person in 1860 to more than 70 kg per person in 2012. Today, in addition to the sugar we choose to use on our breakfast cereal, in our coffee, and in other ways, we are exposed to large amounts of sugar which have been added to the processed foods we eat and over which we have no control. For a number of years, many Canadians have been trying to decrease their consumption of sugar. For some, this has not been simply a matter of choice. Many

people have health conditions diabetes is probably the most common which prevents them from using sugar. But for many others, concerns about the dangerous health problems associated with excessive sugar consumption have prompted a desire for good tasting, but safer sugar substitutes. Until quite recently, only two compounds have been licensed for use as sugar substitutes, saccharin and cyclamates. Questions about the long-term health effects of both have been raised, and the latter was banned by the Canadian Food and Drug Administration in 1976. Saccharin is still permitted for human consumption, but now carries warnings that it “may be harmful to your health.” The search for a safe, good-tasting sugar substitute has, therefore been an intensive one for many years. One stage of the search came to an end in 1983 when the compound called aspartame was licensed for use as a sugar substitute. Aspartame consists of two amino acids. L-aspartic acid and L-phenylalanine, and is about 180 times as sweet as sucrose. Aspartame has completely revolutionized the soft-drink market. Colas that contain a sweet, safe, non-sugar product has attracted many consumers of soft drinks but also has appeal to millions who previously did not consume soft drinks. Aspartame is one of the most tested substances of all time. Still, all the problems of synthetic sweeteners have not been solved. For example, aspartame is very expensive to manufacture, about 20 times as much as saccharin- (another banned substitute). Finally there have been erroneous fear-mongering websites linking aspartame to brain damage in experimental rats and various health concerns with people. Clearly, the search for the “ideal” sweetener is far from over.

Many chemical reactions that occur in the body require a large amount of energy in order for the reactants to come together to make products. This can be a problem in animals because the energy needed would require temperatures too great for most cells to function. Evolution’s answer to this problem is the enzyme. Enzymes lower the activation energy needed for reactions to occur. This allows every critical reaction to occur at body temperature.

ENZYMES Enzymes are biological catalysts, that is they speed up the rate of chemical reactions without being used up or changed permanently in the reaction themselves. All enzymes are globular proteins (3o structure) molecules. The Active Site of Enzymes This is the place on the enzyme where the substrate fits in. The active site is 3-dimensional and has a shape that is complementary to that of

the substrate. The Induced Fit Theory The old “Lock and Key” theory suggested that enzymes and substrates fit together like an inflexible key in a keyhole. Recent evidence suggests that the active site of an enzyme is flexible. Binding between the enzyme and the substrate temporarily alters the shape of the enzyme. This change in shape is thought to cause a strain on the chemical bonds in the substrate. Co-factors and Co-enzymes Some enzymes need a non-protein substance to help them function. These substances are called co-factors. There are two types: Inorganic metal ions such as Mg++, K+, and Ca++ Co-enzymes such as vitamins and NAD+

The protein part of the enzyme is called an Apo enzyme. It gives the enzyme its specificity.

34

Cells Can Make Inactive Enzyme Forms for Cell Protection Some enzymes would destroy the very cells that produce them. To avoid this, cells make the enzyme in a temporary inactive form. Once the enzyme is outside of the cell, it is changed to the active form. i.e. HCl acid in the stomach converts pepsinogen (inactive form) into pepsin (active form) which then starts the digestion of protein in the stomach. Enzymes are named for the substrate that they catalyze. Ex: lipids – lipase Maltose - maltase Enyzme Reading: pg. 106-109 (this reading must be done to complete the lab) 1. What is entropy? (103) 2.

site and the substrate. 6. What is the allosteric site? In noncompetitive inhibition, a molecule fits into the

allosteric site. What effect does this have on the speed of the reaction catalyzed by the enzyme? Why?

7. Explain how feedback inhibition (also called noncompetitive inhibition) controls

the amount of product made during a metabolic pathway. 8. Some enzymes cannot work alone, but need a molecule called either a coenzyme or

a cofactor. Which is an organic molecule and give an example? What effect do metals such as mercury or lead have on enzymes?

TOOTHPICKASE ENZYME LAB Toothpickase is a very unique enzyme that usually has a molecular mass somewhere between 50 and 90 kg and has a shape similar to a human teenager. The substrate for this enzyme is the common toothpick upon which the enzyme acts to produce two smaller pieces (a broken toothpick). The active site of the enzyme is situated between the thumb and the forefinger, if the fingers are held close together. Being an enzyme, toothpickase cannot see its substrate, but instead it must blindly collide with it at random. You and your partner will conduct two experiments to gain some understanding of how enzymes work in the body. Experiment 1 Calculating the Enzyme Reaction Rate Place a pile of toothpicks on the table and have your ‘toothpickase’ break as many as possible (one at a time) in the allotted time. Fill your results in the table below recording results every 10 seconds as you go continuously. Graph your results. (put time on the x-axis)

The Amylase Enzyme Lab Enzymes are biological catalysts; that is, they speed up the rate of chemical reactions without being changed themselves. We are going to examine the reaction of salivary amylase on amylose (starch) under different pH and temperature conditions. Indicators When enzyme and substrate molecules work together they are too small to be seen. We need some sort of an indicator molecule such as iodine to allow us to see the results of this reaction. When iodine is added to starch, the normally reddish/brown iodine turns a deep purple/black color. This is why iodine can be used as an indicator. It indicates the presence of starch by turning a different color. If we place the amylase enzyme in a sample of starch solution, the starch will be broken down into dextrins and finally into the disaccharide maltose by the enzyme. Adding iodine will indicate to us that the enzyme worked because the iodine will remain its characteristic reddish/brown color. In a group of two you will test how pH or temperatures affect this process. The Temperature Experiment Put a couple drops of iodine in each of the spot plate wells. Prepare a test tube with 5mL of starch solution and 5mL of tap water mixed together. Have your partner prepare a second test tube with only 5 drops of enzyme solution in it. Notice on the side counter where there are 4 water baths of different temperature. Starting at any station, place both tubes into the water for 5 minutes. Use the test tube holders provided. After 5 minutes, pour the contents of the starch/water test tube into the test tube containing the enzyme drops and mix thoroughly. Put the test tube back into the water bath to keep the temperature constant. At one minute intervals, carefully pour a small amount of the test tube into one well of the spot plate. Return the test tube to the water bath to maintain the temperature. If the iodine stays reddish/brown, you are finished. You can go to the next station. The enzyme worked at that particular temperature in only 1 minute. If the enzyme didn’t work at this temperature, the well will turn black and you will try again in a new well at minute 2. Do a maximum of 12 minutes for each station. To test all 4 different temperatures your group will have prepared 8 test tubes in total. The pH Experiment Put a couple drops of iodine in each of the spot plate wells. Notice on the side counter where there are 4 pH buffer solutions. In a test tube you will add 5mL of one of the buffer solutions, (you will eventually do all the different solutions), 5mL of the starch solution and 5 drops of the enzyme solution. **The order that you mix them is important!!** Before you combine these 3 together in a test tube, write the order down on a piece of paper and show me. At one minute intervals, carefully pour a small amount of the test tube into one well of the spot plate with iodine in it. Record a “+” sign if there is a color change in the iodine (the iodine turns purple/black) or record a “-“ sign if the iodine does not change color. If the iodine stays reddish/brown, you are finished. You can go to the next station. The enzyme worked at that particular pH in only 1 minute. If the enzyme didn’t work at this pH, the well will turn black and you will try again in a new well at minute 2. Do a maximum of 12 minutes for each station.

Surface Area to Volume Ratio SA/V ratio Limits to Cell Size There are two main reasons why as organisms grow, their cells begin to divide rather than just having the cells get larger. The larger a cell becomes, the more demands the cell places on the DNA to control the cell. In addition, the cell has more trouble moving enough nutrients and wastes across the cell membrane. So making more cells and keeping them small is the best way to go. We talk about this relationship of cell size to the cell’s activity level as “Surface area to Volume ratio. As the length (or SA) of a cell increases, its volume increases even faster than its SA so we say that the cell’s SA to V ratio has decreased. If a cell is too metabolically active, being large is not good. Large cells have difficulty obtaining enough nutrients or removing enough waste by diffusion if they want to be metabolically active cells. As a cell grows larger, its SA/V ratio decreases Small, flat cells have the highest SA/V ratio and therefore can be very active If a cell finds itself with a poor SA/V ratio, it can compensate for this problem by:

1) Cyclosis (circulating nutrients) 2) Large vacuole (pushes contents to the outside near the cell membrane) 3) Convoluted membranes (twisted, folded membranes)

-as found in the brain, kidney nephrons, and small intestines.

Results of Osmosis All of the following occur due to the tendency of cells to become isotonic to their environment. Draw simple diagrams for #1 to 4 in the space provided. Make up concentrations for the cells and the solutions. Assume that the cell membrane is impermeable to the solute. Use arrows to indicate the direction of osmosis.

1. Plasmolysis –when a plant cell is placed in a solution that is hypertonic to it, water leaves the vacuole, the vacuole shrinks, allowing the cytoplasm and the cell membrane to move in away from the cell wall.

2. Turgor Pressure – when a plant cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, water enters the vacuole and pushes the cell contents against the cell wall, helping to support the cell. This outward pressure stops any more water from entering the cell.

3. Crenation – when animal cells are placed in a hypertonic solution, they lose water by osmosis and shrink.

4. Lysis – when animal cells are placed in a hypotonic solution, water enters and causes the cell to burst or lyse. When this occurs in red blood cells it said that they are in a condition of hemolysis.

5. Osmotic Pressure – the pressure that will e created by the inward flow or water into a cell. The higher the solute concentrations in the cell, the higher the OP. (Think of the OP of a cell to be its tendency to take in water.) Plant cells that have a higher OP than the solution they are in, will have turgor pressure.

Changing environments in or out of cells can cause these conditions. The cellular conditions are created in cells as a result of osmosis.

B. Preparation of potato sections Using a #4 or #5 cork borer, remove a section of potato. Using a razor blade, cut a 5 cm length (no skin) of potato section. Rinse the section with distilled water. Blot the section on a dry paper towel. Determine its mass to the nearest 0.1 g. Record this mass in data table #1 on the next page. Place this section into test tube #1. Remove and cut 10 more 5 cm lengths of potato section following the procedure above. Carefully record the initial mass of each section before placing it in a test tube. Allow each section to remain in its solution overnight. The next day, remove each potato section, blot dry and mass out to the nearest 0.1 g again. Record each mass in table #1 as “Final Mass”. Calculate if a gain or loss of potato mass has occurred in each section. Calculate the % change in mass for each potato section by using the following formula: Change in mass (+or-) x 100% (remember, use the change in mass rather than the final mass)
