osmosis

Title: Osmosis in Potato Cells I am going to investigate: the diffusion of water by osmosis in plant cells, when changing the concentrations of sucrose in water, and measuring the change of mass of pieces of potato left in the solution for twelve hours. I predict that I predict that the stronger the solution of sucrose the more mass the pieces of potato will loose. This is because the solution will be more concentrated than …

…long enough for the potato pieces to be in the solution. If I had done the experiment again I would have done some preliminary work to test whether or not 12 hours is long enough time. One last thing is that different potatoes have different concentrations so the results may vary for different potatoes. If I did the experiment again I would have a vaster range of concentrations to give me a wider range of results.
