Osmosis and water 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. Concentration of sucrose solution table Concentration/ M | Sucrose Solution/ ml | Distilled Water/ ml |

HYDROSPHERE We all know that water occupies 75% of the Earth’s surface. Water is a component of living cells and every cell in a living organism is made up of almost 75% water and this let the cell to function normally. Life would not exist without water. Water gives habitat meaning the hydrosphere gives a significant place for many animals and plants to exist. Water takes a long time to heat up and it also takes a long time to cool down. This is important in helping to control temperatures

But It’s Just a Bottle of Water… by Lindsey May‚ Jessica Kotke‚ and Charles R. Bomar Department of Biology University of Wisconsin—Stout Part I—Moving In On the first Mega-Store trip on move-in day at Midwest University‚ Sally and her mom picked up groceries for the dorm. Sally’s mom insisted on getting bottled water for her daughter because of her firm belief that bottled water was safer and cleaner than tap water. Back at the dorm‚ however‚ Sally’s new roommate‚ Jane‚ a sophomore Environmental

NANOTECHNOLOGY IN WATER PURIFICATION Introduction Nanotechnology is the manipulation of matter on a near-atomic scale to produce new structures‚ materials‚ and devices. This technology has the ability to transform many industries and to be applied in many ways to areas ranging from medicine to manufacturing. Research in nanoscale technologies is growing rapidly worldwide In the case of nanoscale materials‚ the uncertainties are great because the characteristics of nanoscle materials may be different

Water scarcity and global warming Global warming is expected to account for about 20 percent of the global increase in water scarcity this century. It is predicted that global warming will alter precipitation patterns around the world‚ melt mountain glaciers‚ and worsen the extremes of droughts and floods. Global water consumption increased sixfold in the last century - more than twice the rate of population growth - and will continue growing rapidly in coming decades. Yet readily available freshwater

Water Conservation Water conservation is important because we depend on it. So many of our daily activities‚ like bathing or flushing the toilet‚ require fresh water. Our body even needs water to function correctly. Seventy-one percent of the Earth’s surface is made up of water. Ninety-eight percent of it all is salt water‚ leaving only two percent as fresh water. More than half of the fresh water is permanently frozen in glaciers or is in the form of snow. That leaves just a tiny
