Osmosis, of potato chips, got real good mark.

Investigation into the Rate of Osmosis in Potatoes and to find out the Sucrose Concentration of the Potato. Introduction In order to carry out this investigation, I first have to define the terms of the objectives so that an understanding is present and a clear process to acquire the answer can be devised. What is Osmosis? Osmosis is the process by which water molecules pass through a partially permeable membrane from an area of high …

…the method itself to find the sucrose concentration of the potato since this seemed like a viable method. However, in extension to the task, I could record the mass of the potatoes at equally measured intervals throughout the duration of the osmosis process. This would give a better idea of the rate of osmosis. I could also expand by applying the same method to other plant cells e.g. the use of different vegetables etc.
