Abstract
This NANSLO lab activity is self-contained and can be used in first semester general biology with lab and survey of biology courses. In this activity, structures of cells are observed through a microscope after exposure to hyper, iso, and hypotonic sodium chloride solutions. The lab activity includes background information on the basic principles of molecular vibrational movement, molecular movement within a cell, and discusses several types of passive transport The lab activity includes lab exercises.
