Here are three essential questions that correspond to the objectives you've outlined:
-
For Objective 1 (Define osmosis and explain its importance):
- What is osmosis, and why is it a crucial process for maintaining cell health and homeostasis in living organisms?
-
For Objective 2 (Describe how osmosis occurs in cells):
- How do different concentrations of solutes inside and outside a cell affect the movement of water during osmosis, and what are the implications for the cell's function?
-
For Objective 3 (Apply understanding through an experiment and discussion):
- Based on your experiment observations, how does osmosis impact the physical properties of cells or cell structures, and what conclusions can you draw about its role in biological processes?
