LESSON SUMMARY
This lesson consists of a hands on science activity in conjunction with a group discussion about the students' observations and hypotheses made during the experiment. The lesson is designed to give students an opportunity to observe the process of osmosis first hand through the diffusion of water through the membrane of a raisin. The lesson will be done in two parts since the actual experiment (osmosis) will take one hour to complete.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Cell- the basic unit of all living things
Cell Membrane- thin layer that surrounds and holds the parts of a cell together and controls the movement of substances through the cell
Diffusion- the movement of particles from where they are more concentrated to where they are less concentrated
Osmosis- the process of diffusion of water molecules through a cell membrane
Dehydrated- word used to describe something that has had the water removed from it

1. In the first paragraph above Lincoln is making the war against the Southern states a moral war. He thought, in order to preserve the Union, to even allow the dissenting states to keep the slavery if that meant not abandoning the Union. But now here he says that he was wrong and that he is fully committed to not only reuniting the United States but also to abolishing slavery.
2. Lincoln here identifies as the commander-in-chief to clearly state that he is in charge and he is making this proclamation with the full power vested in him by the constitution. He is also doing that with the aim of restoring the public spirit and showing people that everything is under control by being the pillar of stability. He with the power vested in him will appeal to congress and ask for the abolishment of slavery in all the states that are in open rebellion against the United States. That can be seen in this passage:

<em>That the executive will, on the first day of January aforesaid, by
proclamation, designate the States, and part of States, if any, in which
the people thereof respectively, shall then be in rebellion against the
United States</em></span><em> </em>
