even though the poet and his mother are having a good time peeling potatoes‚ his mother is ill and they are brought to their senses that the happy times will soon be brought to an end. 2. The potato is an important symbol in Ireland because of its value as a food staple and reminder of the terrible potato famine in the 19th century. What personal symbolic value does it have in this poem? In this poem the potatoe is a symbol of time shared with the poets mother‚ time when it is just him and his

OSMOSIS IN POTATO TISSUES Vanessa Tsao‚ Lovette To‚ Wang Yeyun‚ Zhang Shenjia‚ Alicia Mak Class 101‚ Nanyang Girls’ High School‚ 2 Linden Drive‚ Singapore 288683 ABSTRACT In this project‚ the relationship between the concentration of salt solution and the length of the potato strip that was immersed in it was investigated. Five strips of potato of the same length were placed in different Petri dishes that contained water of different salt concentration. They were left for twenty minutes and the length

Potato Enzyme Lab Enzymes are protein catalysts that speed up chemical reaction in living organisms. The purpose of this lab was to; observe the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide toxin by potato’s enzyme catalase‚ determine factors that influence how quickly the reaction takes place‚ and determine factors that influence how well enzymes function. The first test‚ we were supposed to see what would happen when we add sand in hydrogen peroxide. We filled a test tube with 5mL hydrogen peroxide and we added

Investigating the Water Potential of a Potato. I have been asked to investigate the water potential of a potato. During my investigation I will not actually be able to measure a value for‚ as it is a pressure value (kPa). Osmosis is a special form of diffusion involving only water molecules. It is defined as "The passage of water from a region of high water potential to a region of low water potential through a partially permeable membrane" Definition of Water Potential. The potential for water

may imprint on a child’s mind as what is normal. The child may start to believe that is all they are capable of and all attempts to the contrary are meaningless. A mindset established from a depressive mindset. The multiple generations displayed in Potato Eaters amplified this depressing‚ cathartic thought into the inescapable vile it takes its victims as. In a type of antithesis to the parents who works hard at something they love‚ the attitude helps make a difference between the children emerging

Analysis The trend that my graph and results show is that when the potato was placed in a solution that had a higher concentration than the chip itself‚ the potato lost weight (0.4‚ 0.6‚ 0.8 and 1.0 molars). In the same way when the potato chip was placed in a solution that had a lower concentration than itself‚ the potato chip gained weight (0.0 and 0.2 molars). For my results I calculated the percentage gain/loss in weight using the following formulae: Average change in weight/weight at

THE IRISH POTATO FAMINE Pre-Famine History The potato was introduced to Europe sometime in the 16th century. There are many theories on how it arrived‚ but the one with the most credibility is from a case study done by Theresa Purcell. She explains how the white potato‚ also known as the Irish potato‚ originated in the Andean Mountains and was brought to Europe by the Spaniards. The potato was originally classified in the same family as the poisonous nightshade so people refrained from eating

If the pH level of the solution is more basic‚ then the potato membrane will weigh less due to osmosis. Our null hypothesis was: If the pH level of a solution is either acidic or basic‚ then it will have no effect on the weight. The independent variable was the different solutions of different pH values. The dependent variable was the weight of the potato‚ which was measured in grams. The baseline of this experiment is the weight of the potato when in the milk solution because milk has a neutral pH
