The story of potato chips dates back to late 1850s‚ when a New York chef presented deep fried crisp potato chips to the railroad tycoon Cornelius Vanderbilt. Although the invention was made out of curiosity‚ it became an instant hit after Vanderbilt gave it an approval. Till date‚ potato chips are one of the most favorite snacks among many Americans. To keep up with the healthy trend at present‚ many chips makers now have baked alternatives to traditional chips. Here are few choices of our top chips

Osmosis Lab: The Incredible Egg How does the solution a cell is in effect the movement of substances into and out of the cell? Eggs were soaked in vinegar for twenty-four hours before the lab to dissolve the shell‚ then placed them into the distilled water. Then the eggs were taken out and dried by the paper towel to measure their weight on the electronic scale. First egg weighted 78.92g‚ most of the parts of it’s skin was white translucent‚ and was spongy. After the egg was submerged into the

ABSTRACT An experiment was carried out at the Horticulture Farm‚ Bangladesh Agricultural University‚ Mymensingh during 1998-99 growing season to study the effect of nitrogen and plant spacing on the growth and yield of potato (var. Diamant). Different nitrogen levels viz. 0‚ 127.0‚ 190.5 and 254.0 kg N/ha significantly influenced plant height‚ foliage coverage‚ number of main stem per hill‚ days required for 80% maturity of the crop‚ fresh weight of haulm (g/hill)‚ number of tubers per hill‚

Investigating the Difference in Isotonic Point in Sweet and White Potato Research Aim: To observe whether equal sized white potato or sweet potato cores reached the isotonic point in the same concentration of sucrose solution. Introduction: Osmosis is diffusion of water from areas of high water potential to areas of low water potential. It does not require an input of energy. Plants use osmosis to transport minerals from their roots to their leaves‚ and to take in water in the soil. Because the

What is osmosis? Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules through a semi permeable membrane. Why is it important? It is important to know what Osmosis is‚ and to understand it so that we understand what we are measuring‚ and so that we can use this understanding to apply to other situations so that we can gain further knowledge. We can also use this understanding to analyse our results. What we will do: We will put potato pieces of similar sizes in to test tubes of different concentrations

GLADSTONE ROAD AGRICULTURAL CENTRE CROP RESEARCH REPORT NO. 1 TUBER QUALITY AND YIELD OF FOUR SWEET POTATO VARIETIES EVALUATED DURING 2007 Kenneth VA Richardson Department of Agriculture Nassau‚ Bahamas November 2009 ABSTRACT A variety trial was conducted on four sweet potato varieties from April to October 2007 at the Gladstone Road Agricultural Centre. The variety ‘Six Weeks’‚ which is an early maturing variety with white flesh and high dry matter content‚ produced the highest marketable yield

OSMOSIS Aim To determine the water potential of potato tuber cells. Background knowledge Osmosis is defined as the movement of water molecules from a region of higher water potential to a region of lower water potential through a partially permeable membrane. Osmosis is considered in terms of water potential and solute potential. Water potential is a measure of the kinetic energy of water molecules. Here‚ water molecules are constantly moving in a random fashion. Some of them collides with cell

Determining the Rate of Osmosis through a Semi-Permeable Membrane Schneider‚ Justin* Sec 16 and Thomas Hudson Introduction Water is the principle solvent in cells. There are three conditions that a cell may be subjected to in the cells physical environment. The cells may be isotonic‚ hypotonic‚ and hypertonic. Isotonic is when the cell and is environment have equal concentrations of solutes. Therefore cells in an isotonic solution do not experience osmosis. When the cell is hypotonic it

EVALUATION OF NEWLY RECOMMENDED SWEET POTATO VARIETIES UNDER COCONUT BY NELSIE MODINA FERNANDEZ Abstract This study was conducted to evaluate the growth and yield performance of different sweet potato varieties grown under coconut‚ and to determine which variety of sweet potato would perform best under coconut. Among the agronomic characteristics measured‚ only herbage yield differed significantly among sweet potato varieties and was lowest in PSB-Sp 16. Based on ocular observation‚ this might
