An experiment to show the movement of water into and out of plant cells to discover the concentration of the cytoplasm By Karamveer Singh Aulak Aim I am investigating the effect of osmosis on a potato through the concentration of the cytoplasm in a potato cell. I am going to find out this by using salt solutions. Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules across a partially permeable membrane from a region of high water concentration to a region of low water concentration. Prediction I predict that the higher the concentration of salt in the solution, the more water will move out of the potato cell. We know that osmosis is the flow of water in a solution through a membrane while the other molecules are unable to pass through the membrane. Some membranes may allow all or none of the molecules of a solution to pass through, only a few may allow a...
