    The poet I will be focusing on in my essay is Seamus Heaney and his two poems I will be comparing are "Churning Day" and "An Advancement of learning". Heaney was born into a farming family from the north of Ireland in 1939. His poetry mainly seems to handle different themes of love‚ death‚ generation‚ and memories. They all hold a strong dramatic sense. Many of Heaney’s early poems deal with his past childhood experiences and how he overcomes different situations as a young child. A theme he uses

    Osmosis in Potato Conclusion The data we had did not support the definition of Osmosis‚ Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a partially permeable membrane from a region of lower solute concentration to a region of higher solute concentration; the data we collected did not seem to fit into this. The potato chips were suppose to lose more mass in the higher concentrated solution as the water from the potato chip will flow out to the higher concentrated solution as the water inside the potato has a

    in grams) of potato cores placed in them overnight (approximately 10 hours)? 2. Hypothesis Alternative hypothesis: As the concentration of sodium chloride in the solution increases‚ the mass of the potato cores will decrease. If the solution they are in has a lower water potential than the potato cores‚ there will be net movement of water out of the potato cores. If the solution has a higher water potential than the potato cores‚ there will be net movement of water into the potato pieces. Therefore

    concentration to an area of low concentration across a semi permeable membrane. An osmotic system is established when a semi-permeable membrane is placed between two solutions. In this biological systems context‚ osmosis is the exchange of water between the potato cell and the surrounding medium of varying sucrose concentrated solutions‚ with the plasma membrane being the semi- permeable membrane. Because water molecules have kinetic energy‚ they are constantly moving around in gaseous or liquid form‚ moving

    GCSE Biology: Osmosis in a Potato Aim To investigate the effect of placing a piece of potato in a given strength of sugar solution. Prediction I predict that‚ as the solution becomes more concentrated the more the cell will shrink‚ as the water‚ of higher concentration inside the potato cells‚ flows down a concentration gradient into the solution‚ which has a lower concentration of water molecules. If we say that the percentage change when the potato is placed in the 1M solution is x%. I predict

    Potato Enzyme Lab INTRODUCTION An enzyme is a protein that speeds up or slows down a specific chemical reaction in an organism. A good rule of thumb is to remember that enzyme names end in “-ase”. This will help in identifying enzymes in further readings. Generally enzymes are catalysts. Hydrogen peroxide is a toxic chemical that is produced in many organisms during metabolism. Organisms must get rid of this toxin to survive. One reaction turns the hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. The

    The potato’s introduction into Europe proves to be one of the most significant examples of a foreign food crop being able to extensively affect the lives of a an Old World Population. Before the assimilation of the potato crop into the majority of Europe’s agricultural landscape‚ peasant populations constantly faced famines while current food sources provided little nutritional value and were not efficient sources of energy. As Europe adopted the brown tuber‚ people were provided with a far more

    water either into the potato cells or out of the potato cells. In the 0.400M solution‚ the potato decreased in mass‚ this was due to the reason that the solution was hypertonic. There was a higher concentration of solute and lower concentration of water in the solution than there was in the potato cells. This led the water to travel down its concentration gradient‚ which was from a higher concentration (in the cell) to a lower concentration (in the solution)‚ which meant the potato cells lost water‚

    The Potato Epidemic One fine morning in the Kingdom of Sandwiches‚ SandwichKing and Sandwich‚ his pet‚ were going for a walk. Suddenly‚ green potatoes‚ “The SWAT‚” came out of nowhere and asked a million questions about mashed potatoes? Then suddenly‚ as fast as they had appeared‚ they disappeared. “Who was that?” asked SandwichKing‚ “And what do they want with mashed potatoes? Whatever.” Then SandwichKing and Sandwich continued on their walk. The next day‚ when SandwichKing looked out his window
