Title: Potato Osmosis Abstract: In this experiment was designed to study the effect of a concentrated solution applied to white and sweet potatoes. The solution’s impact among the potatoes were to be either hypertonic‚ hypotonic‚ or isotonic. The potatoes were first cut into fries with a fry cutter‚ and then weighed after being cut. The white and sweet potatoes’ weights ranged from .005-.015 grams. A total of 18 sugar solutions are to be made over the course of 3 trials. In each trial‚ 6 different

Making a Potato Powered Light Bulb Materials: A large potato Two pennies Two zinc-plated nails or screws Three pieces of copper wire A very small light bulb or LED light 1) Get a potato and cut it in half. Then make a small slit in each half just big enough to put a penny into. 2) Cut two pieces of copper wire and wrap one around one of the pennies a few times‚ and wrap the other one around the other penny a few times as well. 3) Take a third piece of copper

concentration of sucrose solution on osmosis in a potato. Preliminary Experiments One preliminary experiment was done before the main experiment. From the preliminary‚ we were trying to find out how osmosis actually occurred in potatoes‚ and gave us a vague idea on what the main experiment would be like. This preliminary will aid my prediction‚ which is stated below. The following apparatus was used for the preliminary: * 1 large potato (skin intact) * 3 boiling tubes * Set

Observing Osmosis in Potato Cells Planning Purpose: To observe the effect of osmosis on plant cells. Hypothesis: The higher the salt content of the water‚ the lower the mass of the potato. Variables: Independent: the salt percentage of the solution Dependent: the weight of the potato in grams Controlled: the amount of water the length of time between measurements the method of measuring the type of plant cells tested Equipment: (as seen on 2A Human Biology task sheet)

America’s Great Potato Baron Eric Schlosser’s biography “Fast Food Nation: Why the Fries Taste Good” explains how this invention started out of a simple potato by a man named John R. Simplot who was raised on a farm‚ un-educated and by his own account‚ left home at a young age. According to Eric Schlosser’s claim‚ “John Richard Simplot‚ America’s great potato baron‚ whose seemingly inexhaustible energy and willingness to take risk built an empire base on French fries” (Schlosser par. 2).

experiment‚ you will study osmosis. Your task is to design an experiment that will determine what concentration of solute is isotonic with the specimen cells. (Design) Procedure: You will be provided with the following materials: Potato‚ potato corer‚ scalpel‚ forceps‚ electronic balance 10 % salt solution‚ distilled water‚ 50 mL beakers‚ graduated cylinder‚ paper towel You must design a procedure that will enable you to determine the concentration of salt that is isotonic

The Calvin and Hobbs comic strip portraying Hobbs’ new approach towards ethical behavior communicates a less vastly recognized point of view regarding the need for morals and justifies why in fact‚ people regard them as unneeded at all. Hobbs expresses a few ideas in the strip; “the ends justify the means” ‚ “might makes right‚ the winners write the history boxes” and “it’s a dog eat dog world”. The first idea‚ “the ends justify the means”‚ expresses a widely spread notion that in a materialistic
