    Germans‚ימ’’ש ? What is this that’s worth his whole life? A potato. Not even a whole one‚ but half of a potato‚ smuggled out of the kitchen. He had risked his life‚ both by going there without permission‚ and by taking the potato. But it’s so very important to him‚ so he did it anyway. And now‚ here he is‚ waiting impatiently to go into his barracks. Finally‚ the endless roll call is over‚ and he sighs with

    Potato Osmosis Lab Report

    • 4 Pages

    Abstract The experiment was carried out to investigate at which point the potato has reached its isotonic environment. From the results‚ when the concentration increase to 0.3M‚ the mass of the potato slices decreased by -3.26%. We can conclude we see that as we increased the sucrose concentration it was a decrease in the percent change. Introduction All cells have membranes that are selectively permeable. In other words‚ they allow certain things in and certain substances are not allowed to

    Summary The poem begins with our speaker at his desk‚ his pen poised to begin writing. He gets distracted by the sound of his father outside‚ working in the garden‚ and this sends our speaker into a spiral of memories about his father working in the potato fields when the speaker was a young boy. The memory stretches even further back to his grandfather and the hard work he did as a peat harvester (there’s all kinds of hard work going on). Eventually‚ our speaker snaps out of his daydream‚ and we find

    Since potato cells were used for this type of experiment‚ in an Isotonic solution the solute and water concentration are the same as inside the cell in which the isotonic solution contains 0.9% NaCl. In other words‚ water moves in and out in the same amount without causing any changes. In a hypertonic environment‚ the solute concentration is greater and water concentration is less outside the potato cell in which the hypertonic solution contains 10.0% NaCl. This solution will cause the potato cells

    Osmosis using potato cores and sucrose solution 1.0 Abstract This experiment’s ultimate goal is to find the water potential of the potato cell. This was achieved through placing potato cores in different concentrations of sucrose (0.2%‚ 0.4%‚ 0.6%‚ 0.8%‚ 1.0%‚ 2.0%‚ 3.0% and 4.0%) solution and to observe how much water was gained or lost through osmosis to reach a prediction of the concentration within the potato cell. The results displayed that the concentration of sucrose within the potato cell is

    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

    diffusion I will be using potato discs‚ of the same size and mass‚ in different concentrations of sugar solution to find out whether the mass of the discs increases or decreases depending on the concentration. I predict that when the sugar solution is 0% the mass will increase as there is less sugar in the water than in the potato. The water will then travel through a partly permeable membrane into the potato from outside. When the sugar solution is 20% the mass of the potato will decrease as there

    Osmosis was clearly shown since the potato cylinders decreased or increased at different 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

    foam that can be measured. ANALYSIS QUESTIONS 1. a) Describe the effect of damaging the potato on the catalase activity. With the increased level of damage to the potato‚ there appeared to be more activity within the reaction between the catalase and the H2O2. b) Explain at the cell level why crushing or macerating the potato has this effect. When you crush or macerate the potato‚ you are breaking the cell walls of each individual cell. Once this happens‚ the catalase is
