if you place them in two different solutions. Osmosis has a lot to do with this experiment and is the movement of water molecules from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. Osmosis only deals with water and is a type of diffusion. The difference between all three solutions is that in a hypertonic solution the cells fluid rushes out of the cell and causes it to shrivel. In a hypotonic solution water rushes into the cell and causes the cell to expand and eventually pop. In a isotonic solution

Osmosis and Scientific Method Lab Report Abstract The purpose of the lab is to see how different size potatoes have faster water movement depending on the concentration of sucrose it was placed in. We had two sized potatoes‚ 6g and 10g‚ and placed each in three different dilutions of sucrose at 0.5M‚ 0.1M‚ and 0.05M. We also placed a 6g and 10g potato piece in water to act as a control. Based on the weight percent change over 60 minutes‚ the 6g potato piece had faster water movement than the

Plant cells are eukaryotic cells that differ in several key aspects from the cells of other eukaryotic organisms. Their distinctive features include: A large central vacuole‚ a water-filled volume enclosed by a membrane known as the tonoplast maintains the cell’s turgor‚ controls movement of molecules between the cytosol and sap‚ stores useful material and digests waste proteins and organelles. A cell wall composed of cellulose and hemicellulose‚ pectin and in many cases lignin‚ is secreted by

Investigation of Factors Affect Osmosis in Potatoes Aim The aim of the following experiment was to investigate the effect of varying the concentration of sucrose solution on osmosis in a potato. Preliminary Experiments One preliminary experiment was done before the main experiment. From the preliminary‚ we were trying to find out how osmosis actually occurred in potatoes‚ and gave us a vague idea on what the main experiment would be like. This preliminary will aid my prediction

DETERMINATION OF THE WATER POTENTIAL OF POTATO TUBER CELLS. Method. Five sucrose solutions with varying molarity and one control containing distilled water were prepared and poured into test tubes. The potato discs were dried‚ weighed and added to the test tubes. The discs were then weighed again after a period of 24 hours. The percentage change in mass was then calculated. Apparatus.  Specimen tubes with stoppers x6  1cm3 diameter cork borer  razor

Potato Osmosis Introduction: A shipwrecked sailor is stranded on a small desert island with no fresh water to drink. They know they could last without food for up to a month‚ but if they didn’t have water to drink they will be dead within a week. Hoping to postpone the inevitable‚ their thirst drives them to drink the salty seawater. They are dead in two days. Why do you think drinking seawater killed the sailor faster than not drinking any water at all? Today we explore the cause of the sailor’s

Introduction This experiment was osmosis and diffusion. In this experiment I began by calculating the volume of a fresh chicken egg. Then to determine the effect of osmotic pressure change on a cell I soaked the raw chicken egg in vinegar for 24 hrs‚ and measured the volume of the egg after the shell had been dissolved by the vinegar. The egg was then submerged in corn syrup for 1-24 hrs‚ then measured and recorded the new egg volume. Finally the egg was submerged in water for 1-24hrs‚ again the

Everything always has two side is good things and bad things. Living in the city or countryside does not matter‚ the most important thing is your thoughts and your hobbies. Some people think that the city has more modern life‚ higher education and better health care. With this essay‚ I want to compare difference between urban life and rural life. First of all‚ living in the city is more modern than one in the countryside. In the countryside‚ the life is very peaceful and safe‚ we can hear
