    Osmosis investigation Aim: To investigate how sugar concentration affects the mass or size of a potato and find out the sugar solution. Introduction: Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a partially permeable membrane form a region of high water concentration to a region of low water concentration until the concentration on both sides is equal.

    The Process of Osmosis and its Importance to Living Organisms. Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a semipermeable membrane that does not allow dissolved solids (solutes) to pass. Osmosis refers only to diffusion of water and the direction of movement is from the area of higher concentration to the area of lower concentration. This migration of water from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration is spontaneous and although water molecules move in both directions

    solution‚ the sucrose will over time‚ go through the process of diffusion and be distributed throughout the coffee. Osmosis is movement of H2O molecules passing through a permeable cell membrane to the less concentrated solution‚ eventually to reach an equivalent number of molecules on both sides of the cell membrane. 1.2 The important factors in the process of diffusion and osmosis is H2O being present with soluble molecules that are small enough to be absorbed through the cell membrane to then
