of a Potato Mishal Hasan Abstract Students in Biology find it difficult to understand the concept of tonicity and osmolarity in a real time situation. In this investigation‚ several concentrations of sucrose were used to determine the osmolarity of a potato. It was found that the concentration of sucrose was close to 3.6 in the potato used showing that it was isotonic. Anything above caused the potato to gain weight showing that it was a hypotonic solution and anything below caused the potato to lose

11. Then add the benedict’s solution to the sucrose beaker. Put water in the 400ml beaker‚ and put it on the hotplate to start to boil the water. 12. Then stand the test tubes in boiling water for a few minutes. 13. A color change through green to yellow‚ brown and finally to red indicates the presence of reducing sugar. 14. Repeat 3 times‚ washing the materials each time you finish one cycle 15. Then you have our standard for have a standard for the rest of the experiment. 16. Then you have a standard

had the overall impact in this excitement a little on osmosis. Osmosis takes place when two solutions of different concentrations are separated by a semi-permeable membrane in which the solvent can pass through but not the solute. In our experiment‚ we used a sucrose solution that will be a hypotonic concentration of solute. This tells us that the solution has a lower concentration of water than does the cells. Therefore‚ due to osmosis‚ the cells will gain water weight also proven in the experiment

deformation is directly proportional to the deforming force provided that its yield strength is not exceeded. Under these conditions the object returns to its original size and shape upon removal of the deforming force. It is therefore expected that the cylinder underwent no permanent deformation during this experiment. Strain rosette measurements were taken from the graph a s pressure of 25Mpa to calculate the angle from the principal axis. At 25mPa grid one (1) gave value of ‚ grid two (2) and grid

I am going to investigate osmosis when potato is placed in different concentrations of sucrose. I am aiming to witness osmosis in 5 different concentrations of sucrose. I will use 5 varying concentrations so that I have a wider spread to compare the results‚ and check that I don’t have any anomalies Prediction Osmosis is the process of diffusion of water molecules from a weaker solution into a stronger solution‚ through a semi permeable membrane. The tiny pores in the membrane

Cylinder choke is an unconstricted barrel and the shot pattern spreads quickly. Improved Cylinder choke has a slight constriction. It allows the shot pattern to spread fairly quickly. Modified choke has moderate constriction. The shot stays together longer‚ making the pattern denser and more useful at longer ranges. This choke is used often for dove hunting and is the preferred choke when using steel shot to hunt for ducks or geese. This is because laws require waterfowl hunters to use steel shot

An Investigation Into The Effect Of PH On The Activity Of Potato Tissue Catalase Aim The aim of my investigation is to see how pH affects the activity of potato tissue catalase‚ during the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to produce water and oxygen. Catalase + 2H2O2 Catalase + 2H2O +O2 Catalase + Hydrogen Peroxide Catalase + Water + Oxygen Independent Variable The independent variable in this investigation is pH. Each individual enzyme has it’s own pH characteristic

potential Aim of the experiment: Finding the water potential of potato. Biological principles: Independent variable: concentration of the solution. Dependent variable: percentage changed in weight of the potato strips. Controlled variable: size of the potato strips‚ it can be controlled by cutting the length of the strips. Procedure: Table 1.
