The effect of salt concentrations on the mass of the pear cubes ‘Pyrus’ after being soaked in water Aim: The effect of salt concentrations on the mass of the pear ‘Pyrus’ pieces shaped as cubes of 1cm. Background: Osmosis is the net movement of water molecules through a semi-permeable membrane from an area of higher water potential to an area of lower water potential. Water makes up to 70-90% of living cells and cell membranes are partially permeable membranes. Dissolved substances attract

The Irish Potato Famine Have you ever thought that one day all of the potatoes could go bad? Unfortunately it’s true.The potato famine or known as the Great hunger was in Ireland until 1845-49. People of all ages were affected.Since the soil was poor‚ potatoes didn’t grow like they’re supposted to. The cause‚ a failure of the Irish potato crop due to an infestation of Phytophora infestans‚ a microscopic fungus‚ also called the potato blight.They think that the disease was brought him by an American

plant physiologist‚ Wilhelm Pfeffer. Ten years prior‚ Moritz Traube prepared the first recorded synthetic membrane that was made from a precipitated film of copper ferrocyanide. It was not until almost two hundred years later that the process of osmosis was revisited and extensively reviewed by researchers from the University of California at Los Angeles. In 1959‚ Sidney Loeb and Srinivasa Sourirajan developed a membrane made from cellulose acetate‚ which removed at least ninety percent of salts

A potato chip is a slice of potato‚ deep fried or baked until crisp. Potato chips serve as a side dish or snack. The chips of this kind are just cooked and saled‚ but chips are an important part of the snack food market in English-speaking countries and many other Western nations. Lays Classic potato chips contain potatoes‚ healthier oil‚ and salt. Consumers buy lays classic potato chips because of the fufilling taste‚ crunchy and salty. Lays’ potato chips have become such a common snack among many

CELLS All living things are made of cells‚ and cells are the smallest units that can be alive. Life on Earth is classified into five kingdoms‚ and they each have their own characteristic kind of cell. However the biggest division is between the cells of the prokaryote kingdom (the bacteria) and those of the other four kingdoms (animals‚ plants‚ fungi and protoctista)‚ which are all eukaryotic cells. Prokaryotic cells are smaller and simpler than eukaryotic cells‚ and do not have a nucleus. Prokaryote

You may be wondering what diffusion‚ tonicity‚ osmosis and semipermeable membrane is. I’ll start off by explaining semipermeable membrane. A semipermeable membrane relates to the dialysis lab #1 because in dialysis tubing is considered semipermeable barriers. Semipermeable membrane is a membrane that allows passage of some particles but not others. (Lab manual) Diffusion on the other hand‚ is a form of passive transport where particles move down their concentration gradient from a region of high
