Investigating Osmosis
A thorough investigation of cell transport is provided when completing the assignment. The first half requires biology class members to answer questions about diffusion and osmosis with the aid of diagrams. Then they fashion an...

Cell Size and Shape; Diffusion and Osmosis Processes
Use salmon eggs as a cell model for demonstrating the movement of water over concentration gradients. Junior scientists examine the same process microscopically with an onion cell. They use a thistle tube and a semipermeable membrane to...

Investigating Osmosis in Chickens' Eggs
You might not be able to learn through osmosis, but you sure can observe it! Scholars observe and measure osmosis using chicken eggs. They control for multiple variables to determine which variables have an impact and how the impact...

Introduction to Osmosis
A chicken egg is a very large cell—perfect for investigating osmosis! Scholars conduct an experiment with vinegar and eggs that helps them understand the process of osmosis. They follow the activity with an in-depth look at osmosis in...

Osmosis, Diffusion, and Active Transport
No, it really is okay to play with your food! Emerging scientists manipulate popcorn, eggs, and other household objects as they demonstrate multiple cellular processes. The activity, capable of modifications, is designed to reflect the...
Curated OER
Observing Osmosis
Students investigate osmosis using egg cells with the shells removed. In this osmosis lesson plan, students remove the shell of an egg by letting it soak in vinegar for two days. They take measurements and observe the cell. They soak the...

Osmosis and Diffusion: Egg Lab
Students examine why diffusion and osmosis happen in an egg cell. In this diffusion lesson students demonstrate a semi permeable membrane.
Curated OER
Osmosis and the Cell Membrane-part 2
Students participate in a review of diffusion and the basic properties of the cell membrane before exploring the process of osmosis in a lab activity. Using shell-less eggs that have soaked in various solutions, students make...
Curated OER
Semipermeable Membranes and Bioaccumulation
Beginning biologists place a drop of food coloring into water of differing temperatures to observe the effect on the diffusion rate. They remove the shells from raw eggs and then experiment with osmosis over the remaining membranes....
Curated OER
Osmosis
Learners explore diffusion and active transport. They observe the effects of eggs in vinegar and predict what will happen when eggs are placed in corn syrup with food coloring. Students complete worksheets which lead them to describe...

An Egg-cellent Osmosis Experiment
Students investigate the problem of osmosis by conducting an experiment. They use eggs with the shells dissolved to tell whether fluid can move across the membranes. The experiment provides high interest for all kinds of students to keep...

What Is an Egg Without its Shell?
Students observe osmosis, a cellular process that normally can't be observed without a microscope, and use scientific method to observe osmosis in a chicken egg.
Curated OER
Osmosis
Second graders discover the process of osmosis. In this science lesson plan, 2nd graders learn how different kinds of solutions move through selectively permeable membranes, understand the role of osmosis in the movement of molecules,...

Observing Osmosis in a Chicken Egg
Tenth graders develop a hypothesis and explain what they observed on an activity. In this investigative lesson plan students observe osmosis and report their data using a graph.
Curated OER
Rubber Egg
Students demonstrate the semi-permeability of a cell membrane. For this rubber egg lesson, students measure and record egg data, place the egg in jar with vinegar and close the lid, observe immediately and periodically for the next 3...
Curated OER
Egging It
Sixth graders discover scientific processes by conducting an experiment in class. For this osmosis lesson, 6th graders utilize eggs, cooking ingredients, string and plastic cups to create an experiment in which they watch the exchange of...
Curated OER
The Day an Egg Solved the Mystery of the Cell
Students conduct an experiment comparing human cells to chicken cells. In this cells lesson plan, students conduct an experiment to see how nutrition moves through cells and how to better take care of their bodies.
Curated OER
Discovering the Structure of the Atom
Students investigate atomic and nuclear structure of matter by researching historical atomic theories. Students examine Rutherford's studies and discover that many scientific conclusions change over time as new data is collected.
