It is known that liquids move from a low concentrated area to a higher concentration. This is more commonly known as osmosis. The liquids try to balance out the concentration. Osmosis occurs commonly in cells.

OSMOSIS EXPERIMENT Planning Experimental Procedures It is known that liquids move from a low concentrated area to a higher concentration. This is more commonly known as osmosis. The liquids try to balance out the concentration. Osmosis occurs commonly in cells. Substances such as water are diffused into the cell until the concentration from the outside and inside of the cell are as equal as possible. The aim of the investigation is to see if increasing the surface of a potato tube will affect how fast the process of osmosis takes place for the movement of water in or out of the potato. The apparatus and resources that are going to be needed to go through with this experiment is: distilled water, Electric scales, Potato, cork borer, knife, Measuring cylinder, test tubes, i first had to get a potato. i than used a cork borer to cut out about six potato cylinders. For safety, i did...
