Biology Coursework: The effects of Osmosis on a potato chip in Sugar Solution

Biology Coursework: Effect of Sugar Solution on Potato Chips Planning Before planning the experiment, I will research osmosis, so that I can make predictions. This will help me to discover how to make this investigation fair and safe. Planning ahead will help me find out the order in which to carry out the experiment. This should lead me to good results at the end of the experiment. Hypothesis Osmosis is the passage of water from …showed first 75 words of 817 total…

…showed last 75 words of 817 total…that none of the potatoes fall apart. I will place them into sets of three depending on when which solution they were placed in and weigh and measure them. To get the most accurate results, I will take the average reading of the three pieces. I will then analyse my results and see if they match my prediction.
