EXPERIMENT TO SHOW THE EFFECT OF DIFFERENT CONCENTRATION OF GLUCOSE ON POTATO STRIPS INTRODUCTION: Molecules of liquid and gas are constantly in motion‚ they move randomly in all directions and bounce around in all directions and bounce around and into each other. As they move‚ they tend to spread out moving from areas with many molecules to areas with fewer molecules .

Aim To investigate the effects of increasing salinity on potato cell mass. Background Information This experiment is based upon osmosis. Osmosis can be defined as the net movement of water molecules from a region with high concentration to a region with low concentration. This movement must take place across a partially permeable membrane such as a cell wall‚ which lets smaller molecules such as water through but does not allow bigger molecules to pass through. This process will take place until

Weight and Circuit Training Summary Weight and circuit training and types of S&C. Resistance training is a training method that uses a resistance to the force of muscular contraction (concentric i.e. shortening‚ eccentric i.e. stretching and isometric i.e. no change in length). Stretch shortening cycle- when a muscle is stretched before its contracted is produces a more powerful contraction e.g. CMJ Slow-twitch muscle fibres are fatigue resistant but don’t contract very forcefully or rapidy
