Be prepared for the quiz at the beginning of this lab. The questions will be
based on material from last weeks lab.
Read The Cell Anatomy and Division and Transport Mechanisms and Cell
Permeability in your Lab Manual.
Complete the Lab 2 Pre-lab Assignment below, in order to be eligible for one
mark on the quiz.
PRE-LAB ASSIGNMENT
Read Lab Manual Exercise: The Cell Transport Mechanisms and Cell Permeability.
Answer the following questions for Activity 3 in the Lab Manual before you
come to lab.
The dialysis membrane used to make the sacs has pores of a predetermined size,
and is therefore selectively permeable; only small molecules will pass through the
pores. In this pre-lab assignment, you will make predictions of what will happen in
the lab.

1. a) Identify and label the contents of the beaker and of the sac for each
experiment.
b) Will there be net movement of any molecules across the wall of the sac in any
of the beakers? Add labelled arrows to the diagrams to show your predictions.
Beaker 1 Beaker 2
beaker fluid: beaker fluid:
sac fluid: sac fluid:
Beaker 3 Beaker 4
beaker fluid: beaker fluid:
sac fluid: sac fluid:
2. The table on the next page is similar to the one in which you will record your
results in the lab.

Based on your predictions in Question 1 above, fill in the table as follows:
a) Predicted weight change: Use + if you predict a weight gain for the sac, - if
you predict weight loss for the sac.
b) Tests - beaker fluid and Tests - sac fluid: Read the information about the
Benedicts and AgNO3 tests in steps 5 and 7 of Activity 3. Use + if you predict a
positive test, - if you predict a negative test.
3. Why is the beaker fluid and sac fluid in #2 not to be tested with Benedicts or
AgNO3?

The process of mitosis is described in your Lab Manual exercise, and will also be
studied in lab using the Mitosis Models in part 4 below.
