vacuole of a potato cell. We will investigate how the mass of the potato chips change in different sucrose solution concentrations. We will use osmosis to do this. I will be measuring and controlling many different variables‚ these include; - The dependent Variable Weight of potato chip Independent Variable Concentration of sucrose Control Variables consist of; - 1. Temperature 2. Surface area of potato 3. Volume of sucrose solution 4. Same time for each potato chip submerged

The Sapir-Whorf Hypothesis combines linguistic relativity and linguistic determinism. Adherents of the hypothesis follow these two principles to varying degrees

heavier then it adds mass and will slow down so the force hitting the second car won’t be as strong so the acceleration will be slower. So if the first car’s mass is lighter than the second car will accelerate faster. Analyze Results: I reject my hypothesis that if the first car has less mass then the second car will have a greater acceleration. My data shows that as the first car gains mass the second car will accelerate more‚ for example: when the mass of the first car is at 0 grams it accelerates
