Question: investigate the water potential of potato tissue? Introduction All cells require essential materials to ensure their survival. Chemical‚ physical‚ and biological processes are used to move these materials inside of cells. Similar processes move waste materials outside of cells. These processes can be passive‚ occurring as a result of basic physical laws and requiring no outside energy from the cell or they can be active‚ requiring energy expenditure. Since all molecules possess kinetic

absorbed by the solutes in the solution‚ thus measuring the absorbance of a solution. The mechanism behind this theory is based on the reference on the visible light spectrum. Different compounds absorb different wavelengths of light and appear to be the colour that it’s reflected which can be observed with our naked eyes. The higher the concentration of the absorbing compounds in a solution‚ the greater the amount of light that is absorbed. The absorbance of a solution can be determined using the

different masses of salt affect the percentage of transmitted light? Variables – Independent – • Mass of salt‚ the salt added into the distilled water in grams (0.1‚ 0.5‚ 0.75‚ 1‚ 1.5) Dependent – • Percentage of transmitted light through the solution using 5 different mass of salt and a constant availability of 2g of sugar as source of food. (there are 5 trails for each conical flask representing 5 different salt masses) Controlled – What is being Controlled? How will it be controlled? Why

potato discs‚ of the same size and mass‚ in different concentrations of sugar solution to find out whether the mass of the discs increases or decreases depending on the concentration. I predict that when the sugar solution is 0% the mass will increase as there is less sugar in the water than in the potato. The water will then travel through a partly permeable membrane into the potato from outside. When the sugar solution is 20% the mass of the potato will decrease as there is more sugar in the water

lab‚ the egg is the solute and it is placed in the vinegar which is the solvent. The vinegar is a solution of water (the solvent) and acetic acid (the solute). The water in the vinegar enters the egg through the membrane‚ moving from the higher water concentration in the vinegar to the lower concentration in the egg‚ which causes the egg to increase in size. A hypotonic solution is when the solution has a lower concentration of solute (higher concentration of water) than inside the cell. This is

through the process of dead plants coming together. Such is the case with coal. Q4: in nature‚ how do sediments from one place to another? Describe how they move. In nature sediments move from one place or another through either dissolving in a solution‚ becoming part of a suspension‚ or being bedloaded. This is when the sediments are dragged‚ rolled‚ or just hop along the bottom. Side Two Purpose: to identiy rocks formed from sediments and explain how the rocks are formed. Part I

Tiffany Parker Mr. Taylor Biology 6th period 2/12/15 Gummy Bear Osmosis Lab Report Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to measure the amount of Osmosis in different types of solutions and to see how a cell would react in different types of solutions. Hypothesis: My hypothesis for this experiment is that the Gummy bear will absorb more of the plain tap and sugar water and the salt water will shrink the gummy Procedure: Materials- 3 clear cups‚ one spoon‚ 3 gummy bears‚ timer‚ tap water‚ salt‚ sugar

et al 2004). Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration (Brown 1999). Hypertonic is the solution with a higher salt concentration. Hypotonic solution is the solution with the lower salt concentration. My hypothesis is that the potato core will increase in size. When the solution is hypertonic‚ the potato will decrease in size making the potato hypotonic. Osmosis is really interesting‚ that is why I chose to write this report about
