Osmosis investigation Aim: To investigate how sugar concentration affects the mass or size of a potato and find out the sugar solution. Introduction: Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a partially permeable membrane form a region of high water concentration to a region of low water concentration until the concentration on both sides is equal.

Maple Sugar Urine Disease Classic Maple Sugar Urine Disease or MSUD is a genetic amino acid disorder in which body isn’t able to break down the amino acids found in proteins such as leucine‚ isoleucine and valine. MSUD is also referred to as branched chain ketoaciduria. BCKADs or Branched-Chain Alpha-Keto Acid Dehydrogenase are enzymes that break down those amino acids. This causes the urine to smell like maple syrup. When these amino acids build up in the blood they cause complications.
