Materials & MethodsIn the osmotic lab seven cups , a marker, metric ruler, digital balance, paper towels, a knife and seven cups containing solutions 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6m of sucrose were used in the experiment.The marker was used to label the seven cups with the seven different concentrations of sucrose . A cork borer was used to cork the potato and then the metric ruler was used

Effects of temperature manipulation and solution treatment on the Beta vulgaris craca plant cell membrane and the change of the concentration of betacyanin when placed under these various stressesIntroduction:The Beta vulgaris craca plant, commonly referred to as the beet root contains a pigment, red in colour, called betacyanin. The betacyanin’s containment within the cells of the beet root cell relies on the stability of the plant’s membrane structure. The manipulation of the cell’s membranes

Concentrations of Salt SolutionsIntroduction:Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a partiallypermeable membrane from a region of high water potential to a regionof low water potential. It can be affected by several differentvariables including concentration of salt solutions. When a plant cellis put in pure water it will become turgid and it will not burst dueto the presence of a cell wall and a large permanent vacuole and whenit is put in a concentrated solution it will be plasmolysed

is used to purify solids. This process dissolves a crude solid with impurities in a mildly boiling solvent, and cooling down the mixture afterwards for crystals to reconstruct themselves in solution. This method allows impurities to separate and remain in solution as precipitate or remain uniform in solution. Solids are more soluble in hot solvents than in cold ones, allowing maximum dissolution for proper separation and subsequent crystallization to occur. After purifying the compound, the melting

is considered hypertonic. When a red blood cell is dropped into a beaker of distilled water solution the red blood cell will burst. The reason the red blood cell exploded was because the cytosol has more solute than the distilled water and the distilled water move into red blood cell. This environment is called hypotonic. If a red blood cell is dropped into a beaker of the same solute concentration solution as the cytosol, the water will move in and out of the cell. This creates no net movement of

potato strips and three unknown solutions (A, B, C). First three slides were prepared containing RBC’s and unknown solutions A, B and C. A control slide was prepared only using RBC’s. After observing each slide under the microscope it was determined that unknown solution A was hypertonic because the RBC appeared to have shrunk. The RBC in unknown solution B appeared to be swollen, therefor, the tonicity of unknown solution B was hypotonic. Unknown solution C showed no change to the RBC shape

the substrates and active sites of enzyme increase due to the increasing amount of active sites which allow more collisions to happen, so the rate of breakdown of lipids to simpler substances will increase. During the experiment, sodium carbonate solution and pH indicator phenolphthalein will be added ahead of

electrons it shares with the hydrogen atoms. The partial charges make it possible for water molecules to arrange themselves around charged atoms (ions) in solution, like the sodium (Na+) and chloride (Cl−) ions that dissociate when table salt dissolves in water.Other substances that dissolve in water also lower the freezing point of the solution. The amount by which the freezing point is lowered depends only on the number of molecules dissolved, not on their chemical nature. This is an example of

criteria for evaluating solutions.The solution can be either a practical one, which would affect material gains or losses, or one based on value, which would fallow a goal that reflects image or purpose. Max and George have decided to incorporate both types, and each solution that they come up with must meet the established criteria.The solution must cause a 5% increase in sales, must be cost effective, and can not affect the quality of the products.3.
