What substance would be expect if a test tube containing yeast glucose and water after 24 hours?
You just might get some CO2. (That's a gas.) The yeast cells will ferment the glucose in to ethyl alcohol and Carbon dioxide. The CO2 being in the gaseous form will diffuse in the atmosphere and in the test tube, ethyl alcohol in diluted form with water will be found.

What will and won't pass through a visking tube?

Can starch pass through visking tubing?
We supply Visking tubing and offer the following information: The molecular weight cut-off of this product is 12000 - 14000 daltons. This means in theory that molecules larger in MW than this will not pass through the membranes and ones smaller will. Starch has a very high molecular weight and the tubing is often used to illustrate the effect of enzymes breaking starch down into to simple sugars. Starch therefore should not pass through the membrane wall. The user of this product should be aware that this is a nominal cut-off and long thin molecules above the 14kd cut-off may go through and globular molecules below may be retained. In addition the charge on a molecule may effect the rate of transfer across the membrane.
Where to find visking tube?
Visking tubing is made of cellulose and often used as a model gut in class room experiments.
How does visking tube work?

What is visking tubing?
Visking tubing is a kind of seamless semi permeable tubing, a cellulose tubing, that is made of regenerated cellophane. It is used as an edible casing for sausages or as a membrane in dialysis.
What part of our bodies acts like a visking tube?
You may be thinking of the blood capillaries. Like visking tubing, their walls are able to let substances diffuse in and out. This is also true of the cell membranes. However both of these are much more permeable than visking tubing. The kidney contains semi-permeable membranes which allow urea to pass through but not other substances such as proteins.
What is a type of tube that is semi-permeable?
visking tubing
What part of body does the water represent in visking tube?
small intestine
How is a visking tube not like a real small intestine?
it is different because widts of the tube and intestine may vary
What moleclue is not allowed to pass from blood capillaries in to the kidney tube?
glucose and proteins
What is a detailed explanation of how the visking model is good or bad?
can someone tell me what is good about visking tube and whats bad about it asap because i need to give my homework by tmor and my homework relates 2 that
What are the properties of tube?
It has Smll spaces which only allow small particles like glucose, galactose and furctose, as well as amino acids, fatty acids and water to pass through
