INTRODUCTION [pic] CHIPS Company is the World leader in the salty snack category‚ controlling more than 35% of the world market in snack chips &60% in the United State. Among the company’s well known brands are five that generate annual sales of$1billioneach: Lay’s‚ Ruffles‚Doritos‚ Tostitos &Chee –tos. In addition to its dominance of the potato chip‚ tortilla chip‚& corn chip sectors (the last of these led by the Fritos brand)‚Frito-Lays has major brands in other categories such as Rold Gold

general-purpose design which has its own advantages and disadvantages. ➢ Adv: One chip can run a range of programs. That ’s why you don ’t need separate computers for different jobs‚ such as crunching spreadsheets or editing digital photos ➢ Disadv: For any one application‚ much of the chip ’s circuitry isn ’t needed‚ and the presence of those "wasted" circuits slows things down. Suppose‚ instead‚ that the chip ’s circuits could be tailored specifically for the problem at hand--say‚ computer-aided

Effect of Osmosis on Potato Aim: To investigate the effect osmosis has on potato pieces that are placed in different concentrations of sugar solutions in water. Hypothesis: I believe that the more saturated the solution is the lighter the potato will be‚ and the potato in the clear water will weigh more after being left in the solution over a 24 hour period. This is because the cell membranes in the potato act as semi permeable membranes (meaning that they only allow certain molecules through)

Food Inc This movie is a documentary of how foods are being produced and it helped us show the basis of how food is packaged and sold locally in our grocery stores. This movie reveals what our industry has been trying so desperately to keep from us. We have a right to know what we put in our bodies. We have a right to know whether the food we’re eating has been genetically modified‚ or where it comes from. After watching the film Food‚ Inc. I gain knowledge on parts of our food industry that was

Osmosis in Potato Tubers Andrew Dickson Background When a plant cell is bathed in a solution of the same concentration (isotonic) as its intracellular environment‚ its mass and volume remain the same. This is because water enters and leaves the cells at the same rate. There is no net loss or gain of water by osmosis. Samples of cells can be placed in a range of solutions of different concentration. The cells will gain water by osmosis when placed in solutions which are more dilute (hypotonic)

Battery from Potato Introduction: Batteries generate electricity through a chemical reaction between two different electrodes and one electrolyte. Use of Copper and Zinc electrodes and Sulfuric acid as electrolyte is a proven method for this process. We are wondering if we can use any other liquid as electrolyte? This gave us the idea of using a potato as electrolyte. After all a fresh potato has a lot of juice that may serve our purpose as electrolyte. Problem: Can Potato be used to generate

populations. The Irish potato clones were certainly low on genetic variation‚ so when the environment changed and a potato disease swept through the country in the 1840s‚ the potatoes (and the people who depended upon them) were devastated.Thesis: The Irish Potato Famine devastated the Irish population and economy as well as sowing the seeds of rebellion against England. 1st Point: Ireland dependent on potato • Families spent most time on cash crops to pay rent • Potato easy to grow‚ nutricious

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

dissolved molecules than inside the cell‚ the solution is hypotonic‚ and water will move from the solution into the cell. If the surrounding solution has a higher concentration of dissolved molecules than the cell‚ the solution is hypertonic. In that case‚ water will move from the cell out into the surrounding solution. An isotonic solution is when the concentration of dissolved molecules is the same inside and outside the cell‚ and there is no net movement of water across the membrane. When cells are
