An Experiment to find the concentration of a potato cell cytoplasm compared to sucrose Aim: To find the concentration of a potato cell cytoplasm compared to sucrose. Prediction: I predict that as the sucrose solution's concentration increases, the potato cell will lose more weight. This is because of the osmosis of water particles from the potato cell cytoplasm to the solution, resulting in a loss of weight. As the concentration decreases, the potato will lose less weight until a certain point where the osmosis of particles in and out of the potato cells will be equal, the isotonic potential, showing the concentration of sucrose within the potato cell cytoplasm. I also predict the graph will have a negative correlation. Method: * Potato cylinders were gathered from the potatoes provided. * 6 pieces of potato of approximate equal size and mass were cut out. * They were dried by carefully rubbing them on tissue paper. * Each...
