GCSE Biology Investigation OSMOSIS IN POTATOES Task: Using your knowledge of osmosis from previous experimental work, find out how different strengths of solutions affect the process of osmosis Aim: To find out if different strengths of solutions affect the rate of osmosis and try to and establish the strength of solution inside the potato cells. Predictions: * Potato placed in distilled water will become turgid, increasing in size and weight as a result of osmosis * Potato placed in a concentrated sucrose solution will become flaccid, decreasing in size and weight as a result of osmosis * Potato placed in the same strength solution as inside the potato will remain the same size and weight My predictions are supported by my findings in previous experiments; raisins in a weaker solution swelled and increased in weight, those in the same strength solution stayed the same and those in a stronger solution decreased in size and weight....
