demonstrate the process of osmosis using potatoes‚ and to determine the concentration of the cytoplasm of the potato. To demonstrate this‚ we had 6 test tubes and poured in different sucrose solutions of the following concentrations: 0.0M‚ 0.1M‚ 0.2M‚ 0.5M‚ and 1.0M. Once added in with all the sucrose solutions‚ we added in the 6 cylindrical potatoes of equal diameter and length. Before and after putting it in the potatoes‚ we had to weigh the initial and the final mass of each potato. After you have left

Chapter 7 Lab Exercise 7.1.1 Part of the distinction between LAN and WAN networks is ownership. Why is it impractical for an organization to own the entirety of a WAN? Why is it favorable for an organization to maintain ownership of the entirety of a LAN? Use your textbook and Internet research to compose your answer A) There are no limitations on WANs so they can be custom built for the size of the organization. For the purpose of organizational expansion. Exercise 7.1.2 Given the problems with

The Effect of pH on the Rate of Osmosis Using a Glucose Solution Melissa Werderitch Biology 157 11/6/06 Introduction In a journal article written by Florian Lang‚ osmosis is essentially explained as the flow of water from one area to another that are separated by a selectively permeable membrane to equalize concentrations of particles in the two locations (Lang‚ 1997). Osmosis is able to maintain osmotic pressure and regulate a cell’s volume. In a hypotonic () or hypertonic () environment

Investigating the Water Potential of a Potato. I have been asked to investigate the water potential of a potato. During my investigation I will not actually be able to measure a value for‚ as it is a pressure value (kPa). Osmosis is a special form of diffusion involving only water molecules. It is defined as "The passage of water from a region of high water potential to a region of low water potential through a partially permeable membrane" Definition of Water Potential. The potential for water

Experiment: Turgor in Potato Tissue 1. We labelled three test tubes A‚ B‚ C‚ D and added initials of people in our group. 2. Used a syringe or graduated pipette to put 20 cm3water in tube A and 10 cm3 in tube B. 3. Put 20 cm3 of 17% solution in tube C and 10 cm3 in tube B; put 20 cm3 pure sucrose solutions in tube D. 4. Working on the dissecting board I cut the ends off large potato. I was careful with the knife and cut it onto the dissecting board away from myself. 5. Used a cork

Biology laboratory work: Osmosis observation Measuring the dependence of net mass gain in potato pieces on concentration of sugar solution By Jonas Kulikauskas Siauliai Didzdvaris Gymnasium Hypothesis: The more sugar in solution‚ the more potato mass will decrease. Aim: To see how potato mass will change at different concentration solution. Research question: How the mass of potato will change at different concentration solutions? Variables: Dependent: solution concentration. Independent:

Title: Food Energy Lab Report Date of Activity: 8-28-13 through 8-29-13 Purpose: The purpose of the lab was to measure the amount of energy contained in a gram of certain foods. Hypothesis/Prediction: I hypothesize that some of the foods are going to be difficult to burn. Procedure: 1. Weigh the weight of empty can and food items. 2. Fill can approximately one third full of water. 3. Weigh the can after water is in the can. 4. Take the temperature of the water in the can. 5. Place the

Physics Lab Report#3 “Determining the period of a pendulum” Name: Fei Huo Date performed: October 1st‚ 2014 Period 5 Teacher: Mr. Glasel Purpose: The Purpose of this Lab was so that my classmates and I can examine what kind of factors affect the period of a pendulum. Introduction: In a simple form‚ the pendulum is a weight hung from a long string that Galileo discovered that it can be used to track the passage of time very accurately around 400 years ago. In this
