Osmosis Design Lab November 19‚ 2011 Biology Defining the Problem and Selecting the Variables Research Question: What will happen to mass of the cell when it is placed in different solutions while trying to reach equilibrium? Background Information Osmosis is the procedure where water or different types of liquids move through a semipermeable membrane. This type of passage is considered as simple diffusion where no energy is required. This means that the liquid will have

Osmosis Practical Report Introduction: To determine the biological changes that occur to potato cores over a period of time in different solutions of sucrose and to relate these changes to the phenomenon of osmosis. Method: We soaked several discs of potato cuted using a cork borer with around 1 centimeter of diameter and 2 milimeters of lenght into sucrose solutions with a different range of concentrations from 0 to 1.0M. Then we weighed all the potato

of the potato piece must be kept the same in each experiment primarily because they affect the surface area of the piece‚ and varying surface area could have a great effect on the rate of osmosis. This is because in an experiment where the potato chip has a large surface area‚ there is a larger area of partially permeable membrane and therefore more opportunity for water particles to pass through. I will keep the surface area the same by keeping the mass and length of the potato piece

Experiment 1 Background Diffusion is a process‚ in relation to the spontaneous movement of molecules from an area of high concentration‚ to an area of low concentration down a concentration gradient. It is a type of passive transport method‚ that requires no cellular energy (ATP). This movement occurs‚ until a state of equilibrium has been established on both sides of the membrane. The diffusion of molecules happens at cellular level‚ through a cell membrane via the pores. The cell membrane

Science Research Paper: “Potato Battery” I. Problem a. Main Problem This study aims to prove whether fruits and vegetables are good reserves of electricity. The potato‚ known for its high Phosphoric Acid and Sulfuric Acid‚ has been as our chosen fruit to prove and conduct our answers upon the accessibility of fruits and vegetables as an effective renewable energy source. b. Sub-Problems To further provide extra and specific information‚ the researchers have decided to add the following

Group 2 Science Investigatory Project I Title: Potato Battery II Objective: We only need a potato‚ a couple nails and a piece of wire to make a potato battery. It’s a fun science project that helps show the way things work in a battery by using everyday items we see around the house. The goal is to learn more about electricity‚ and possibly a few new science terms along the way. III Materials: * Two Potatoes * Two short pieces of heavy copper wire * Two common galvanized nails

The History of the Potato Chip One of the most recognizable snack foods is the potato chip. Who can resist this thin slice of potato‚ fried into a crisp then salted? Potato chips are delicious and very popular. They satisfy the taste buds of many by hitting all the essential characteristics of a good treat. They are convenient‚ easily found‚ salty‚ greasy‚ and come in a wide variety of flavors. It is hard to believe their invention was a mistake. When George Crum‚ a Native American chef in Saratoga

POTATO INTO BATTERY Abstract a.Purpose To lessen the consume of electric charge b. Procedure We insert copper and zinc electrodes in to the potato‚ close but not touching each other. We use Clip leads to connect our electrodes to the Multimeter to measure voltage between two electrodes or current passing through the multimeter. For this experiment we used a galvanized nail for our Zinc electrode. c. Result It did go well and the potato did give voltage to the equipment (clock) However‚ the

Diffusion of Ammonium hydroxide with red litmus paper Definition of diffusion 1. Diffusion is the process in which particles move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration in order to evenly spread out. 2 Diagram. 3. During the diffusion tube experiment I noted that firstly ammonium hydroxide was placed on to a piece of cotton wool. The cotton wool (with the ammonium hydroxide) was then placed in to a diffusion tube containing around 10 pieces of curled red
