    Tonicity Experiment

    • 838 Words
    • 4 Pages

    purpose of this experiment was to test the tonicity of potato cells. The potato cells were placed in different test tubes with water and were left there for 15 minutes. The percent change in mass is then used to determine if the cells lost or gained water‚ therefore determining the tonicity of the cell. Although it was a brief short time‚ the final results showed that the more water the potatoes were placed in‚ the more hypotonic the potato becomes. Tonicity is stated to be the state of a solution

    The Effect of pH on Enzyme Activity A piece of Solanum tuberosum (potato) was removed and mixed with distilled water in a blender. The resulting solution was filtered through multiple layers of cheese cloth to filter out the liquid by eliminating any large pieces in the solution. The solution created was catechol. Five different solutions were prepared as blanks with each test tube containing 6.0mL of a different pH (pH 4‚ pH6‚ pH7‚ pH8‚ pH10) of phosphate buffer‚ 1.0mL of the enzyme and 1.0mL of

    Osmosis and the Egg Lab Report  By: N. Mullins  Date: January 20‚ 2011    Introduction  This lab was designed to explain the different things osmosis does. Osmosis is the  diffusion of water across a semi permeable membrane. Over three days we tested the egg  in three different solutions to observe the changes. On Day 1‚ the main question we  answered was what happened to the egg when it was placed in vinegar? Before doing this  I came to my hypothesis was that the vinegar would eat away at the shell and eventually

    3%‚ was diluted using 10 mL of hydrogen peroxide and 20 mL of water. In the second beaker‚ a ¼ dilution of potato extract was made using 2 mL of potato extract and 6 mL of water. The third plastic beaker contained 8 mL of water. Using the first and second beaker the experimental assay was performed. Using forceps a small paper disk was dipped into the second beaker containing the potato catalase for exactly 5 seconds. It was next dried on a paper towel for 5 seconds‚ and finally placed at the

    which came from the potato juice. The function of an enzyme is to catalyze reactions in cells. The specific function of the enzyme in this experiment was to see if it affected the activity if it was exposed to different temperatures. A substrate is a material or substance which the enzyme acts. The substrate in our lab was hydrogen peroxide. Procedure For our experiment we used‚ three test tubes‚ nine milliliters of potato

    Diffusion and Osmosis lab Results: Figure 1a-rate of weight change in 15 min intervals of each concentration. The first tube showed very little weight change. However all other tubes show a greater change the concentration could be the factor that determines the permeability of the sucrose. The sucrose molecules are too large to pass through. Figure 1b- sucrose concentration determines the weight change. In this case based on our results as concentration increases the percent weight change

    Diffusion and Osmosis Lab Introduction • What molecules can pass through a semi-permeable membrane? In this lab study we tested carbohydrates such as starch and glucose‚ as well as solutions like Benedict’s and Lugol’s to see if they would cross the membrane of a cell but since we can’t actually see that happen we used dialysis tubing (acts as the cell membrane). • My prediction was that glucose and Benedict’s could pass the semi-permeable membrane but starch and Lugol’s wouldn’t be able to

    Egg Osmosis Lab The purpose of this lab was to demonstrate an example of a spontaneous reaction and its connection to metabolism; in this case it was osmosis. The procedures that we used to complete the experiment were taking five eggs that had been soaked in a sucrose solution and then placing each one in containers of sucrose that each had different levels of concentration. The mass of each egg was measured before being placed into the solutions and then every 10 minutes after until they had soaked
