Osmosis vs. Diffusion
This webquest will walk you through the basic information between osmosis and diffusion. It will allow for you to see video examples, use reading strategies, and create graphic organizers to organize your information for further study! Good Luck!
The Task
- You will visit three websites giving a summary of diffusion and osmosis.
- You will visit two interactive websites showing movies about diffusion and osmosis. After watching these, you will answer questions comparing and contrasting osmosis and diffusion.
- You will visit three websites with interactive osmosis and diffusion activities where you will practice applying your knowledge.
- After you have completed the WebQuest, you and a partner will draw one cartoon that shows how diffusion works and one cartoon showing how osmosis works. The cartoon will include either "witty dialogue" or a "punchline" that correctly demonstrates and understanding of diffusion and osmosis.
