Laboratory 3- Osmolarity
Assignment Pre-Laboratory 3: Osmolarity
Laboratory 3: Osmolarity is designed to help you gain an understanding of solute transport across biological membranes, and the effect of this movement on living cells. In preparation for this lab, please complete a pre-laboratory quiz on CANVAS. This quiz is due on Sunday the \( 21^{\text {st }} \) April.
The quiz will test your understanding of:
- The theory of the Laboratory 3 practical (refer to information in the Laboratory Manual for Lab 3).
- The calculations for tables 3.3 and 3.4 .
- Solute transport, and the effects on erythrocyte volume (refer to the lecture guide of the Cell Processes section of the course);
You will have 60 minutes to complete the quiz, worth 3.5 marks. This mark together with your online lab assignment mark will form your overall mark for this particular lab. This overall mark contributes \( 4 \% \) of your final grade for 107 . Because you have only one attempt, it is highly recommended that you access the quiz on a very stable connection. I do not recommend the CANVAS phone app for these quizzes.
To access the quiz, please:
Log in to CANVAS \( \rightarrow \) Click on QUIZZES \( \rightarrow \) Click on 04A PRE Lab 3 Quiz to read instructions.
Do not begin the quiz unless you are able to finish it all at once - you have one attempt only. I recommend that you read the quiz instructions (within CANVAS) and watch any provided videos BEFORE viewing the actual questions. If you close the quiz without answering any questions you will not be able to re-open it.
If you have any questions about the quiz, or if you encounter any problems, please contact biosci107@auckland.ac.nz prior to the due date.
