Investigating osmosis - coursework for biology includes prediction evaluation and results

Prediction Osmosis is defined as ¡§the movement of water molecules across a partially permeable membrane from a region of high water concentration to a region of low water concentration¡¨. In a high concentration of water the amount of solute (e.g. sugar) is low. This could be called a weak or dilute solution. In a low concentration of water the amount of solute (e.g. sucrose) is high. This could be called a strong or …showed first 75 words of 1140 total…

…showed last 75 words of 1140 total…think that three sets of results was a good number. However, I think that in order to improve my results, the last concentration (1 moler) needs to be retaken as it is an anomalous result. Further work could be carried out to include concentrations that increased in 0.1 M rather than 0.2M. This would increase the accuracy and improve the graph. Other investigations could include using different varieties of potato or different plant tissues e.g. carrot.
