concentration of the solute (sucrose) the faster the solution (water) will pass through the membrane trying to achieve an isotonic state (Vodopich and Moore. 2011.) Materials and Methods To start the experiment 8 pieces of string were gathered; approximately 2 inches in length‚ sewing thread were used for this experiment. Four water soaked pieces of dialysis tubing that were 15 cm long were also used. A small beaker for bag A was filled with a solution of 25% sucrose‚ was labeled to keep separate

concentrations of sucrose. The results supported my hypothesis because for the 0.0 sucrose concentration the average percent change in mass was 16.9%. For the 0.2 concentration the percent change was 3.59%. For the 0.4 concentration the percent change was -15.3%. For the 0.6 concentration the percent change was -27.1%. For the 0.8 concentration the percent change was -23.2%. For the 1 concentration the percent change was -15.4%. The reason for the change in mass is the process of osmosis.

Investigating the Difference in Isotonic Point in Sweet and White Potato Research Aim: To observe whether equal sized white potato or sweet potato cores reached the isotonic point in the same concentration of sucrose solution. Introduction: Osmosis is diffusion of water from areas of high water potential to areas of low water potential. It does not require an input of energy. Plants use osmosis to transport minerals from their roots to their leaves‚ and to take in water in the soil. Because the

Aim: the aim of this experiment is to find out if osmosis and diffusion will occur in an egg. Scope: The scope of this experiment is to investigate if osmosis and diffusion will occur to an egg once it’s put in vinegar for 2-3 days and then put in sucrose solution of different amounts (10%‚ 20%‚ 30% and 40%). 1.4 Hypothesis: My hypothesis relating to this experiment is that the eggs will gain weight and osmosis will occur through the semi-permeable membrane. 1.5 My idea about osmosis and diffusion

a specific concentration of liquid and then clamped the other end. One with tap water‚ one with 20% sucrose‚ one with 40% sucrose‚ one with 60% sucrose and another with tap water. We then filled up the beakers with the liquid required‚ just enough so that it would cover the dialysis tubes when put in there. Beakers 1 through 4 were filled with tap water‚ while beaker 5 was filled with 40% sucrose. After both the beakers and the tubes were full we gently blotted the filled tubes to remove any access

found in plants. It acts as a catalyst for the hydrolysis of sucrose. Sucrose is a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose linked by a glycosidic bond. When this bond is cleaved in a hydrolysis reaction‚ an equal amount of glucose and fructose. Invertase is a significant enzyme because glucose is an important product of photosynthesis. Invertase is also used in the confectionery industry where fructose is preferred over sucrose because it is sweeter and does not crystallize easily. Enzymes

The natural sugars used in this investigation will be sucrose (table sugar) and lactose (in milk). The artificial sugar that will be used is aspartame (equal). The rate of respiration between the natural sugars will be compared to that of the artificial sugar. The molarity of the sugar will remain constant at
