had two sized potatoes‚ 6g and 10g‚ and placed each in three different dilutions of sucrose at 0.5M‚ 0.1M‚ and 0.05M. We also placed a 6g and 10g potato piece in water to act as a control. Based on the weight percent change over 60 minutes‚ the 6g potato piece had faster water movement than the 10g. This confirms out hypothesis that smaller potato pieces will have a faster rate of water movement. Introduction Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane. Water

The Irish Potato Famine occurred in Ireland in 1845 to 1849‚ when the potato harvest failed. A disease that destroys the edible parts of potato plants known as Late Blight caused the unsuccessful crop. The Irish Potato Famine was the worst famine to occur in Europe in the 19th century. Almost fifty percent of the Irish population had become dependent on potatoes in their diet‚ but the entire population consumed the crop in large quantities‚ especially the rural and the poor. The Potato was very susceptible

area of low concentration of water molecules (high concentration of dissolved particles). It is difficult to observe osmosis at the cellular level since cells are very tiny and can only be seen with a microscope‚ so you are going to use sticks of potato tissue in solutions that have different concentrations of dissolved substances to observe the effects of osmosis on living tissue. There are three basic relative concentrations of solutions. An isotonic solution has a concentration of dissolved particles

The simple‚ sustainable‚ robust device can potentially provide an immediate inexpensive solution to electricity needs in parts of the world lacking electrical infrastructure‚ but we’re hoping that it can work a similar amount of magic for developed nations as well. Researchers at the Hebrew University discovered that the enhanced salt bridge capability of treated potato tubers can generate electricity

Some school districts around the United States are considering putting tracking chips in their students I.d. cards. I have to disagree with this idea for many obvious reasons. With all the new technology out there it would not be difficult for anyone to hack into the schools system and find out the locations of any student. It’s an invasion of privacy and goes against the first Amendment rights. A system to keep track of that many students would be very expensive for schools with low budgets. A
