Osmosis Lab Report The essential focus of the experiment was to acquire data for the mass change resulting from osmosis in order to determine the carbohydrate solution of the carrot cells. The carrots were a vegetable used within the experiment with a carbohydrate solution around .5 M. The hypothesis is if there are carrots in different carbohydrate solutions then there will be a percent change in mass. The carrots have large vacuoles that hold water‚ this allows the mass to increase when the hypertonic

the salt concentration deprives the moisture and water from the roots. Through the roots and the cells of the grass and the plants being robbed of the water‚ the results are irreversible death of the area of the grass and plants. To design the experiment I would design a walkway with a line of freshly grown grass and put ice on it then apply table salt or rock salt and watch how the secretion of the saltwater mixture affects the immediate grass that lines the area of the

The Twin Experiments was conducted by Josef Mengele‚ during World War 2 in Auschwitz. Dr. Mengle was a medical researcher who was fascinated with twins in specific. From the three thousand children that would be pulled from the masses of people upon arriving only about 200 survived. Age didn’t matter‚ yet most were children‚ and if they were really young their mother would be allowed to stay with them. The twins recieved "special" treatmeant as they were allowed to keep their hair and clothes. A
