Information Potatoes first originated in South America and were later introduced to Europe by Spanish explorers. Now, potatoes have become an important staple food item to have in the kitchen. They are packed with more energy than any other vegetable. A potato is made of potassium, vitamin C, fiber, starch, water, and fat. The concentration of each component is as follows: 18% starch, 78% water, 2-5%protein, and 1% fat. Hypothesis If the concentration of the salt solution increases then, its mass will
Effect of Sucrose Solution on Osmosis Aim: The aim of the experiment is to show how varying the concentration of sucrose solution affects osmosis by changing different molar solutions of sucrose and water and how it affects the potato. Introduction: In this investigation I will be exploring the effect of varying concentration of sucrose sugar solution on the amount of activity between the solution and the potatoes. Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a partially
They noted the importance of the potato to the Incan Empire (Chapman, n.d.). Incas shared how to preserve potato by dehydrating it and mashing it. Once done, this substance could be stored for 10 years and provided a wonderful backup in case of crop failures. The conquistadors eventually used potatoes as rations on their ships and took it back to Spain (Chapman, n.d.). From there, the potato spread to other countries. Unfortunately, the potato was “regarded with suspicion, distaste and
for 10 minutes, then the mealworms will make their way to the chamber with the potato in it. Procedure: Gather materials- 1 choice chamber, 1 slice of potato, a few flakes of fish food, a stopwatch, and 15 mealworms. Setup the experiment by placing the slice of potato in the chamber labeled either 2 and the
Currently, the potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is the fourth food most consumed worldwide, after rice, wheat and corn. It is important constituent of people's diet from different countries, being grown on over 18 million acres spread over 125 countries (FAO, 2009). The Solanum tuberosum L. is considered the main vegetable crop both in cultivated area and in food preference, competing mainly with tomato within this sector. Potato is one of the most nutritious foods for humans. It has good quality
solanine It is a glycoalkaloid. It is a poison. It is present in the nightshade family i.e Solanaceae especially in species tomato and potato. Solanine is found naturally in many parts of plants e.g tubers, leaves and fruits. It also has pesticidal and fungicidal characteristics. It also act as a natural defence system of plant. Firstly it was extracted in 1820 from a berry i.e Solanum nigram. Solanine poisoning and it's symptoms primary symptoms of solanine poisoning are neurological and gastrointestinal

Task 1 (Fungi) Tara Regmi Introduction For task 1 experiment, I used the following five items: A piece of bread, a white potato, one slice of yellow cheese, a piece of carrot and a small amount of a teaspoon of butter spread. I choose those items from my kitchen. Materials and Methods I started this experiment with five Ziploc bags labeled with the date and time of the experiment. (07/20/2017, 07:19AM). I soaked five piece of paper towel in a cup of water. I squeezed them, put them into the
Experiment to Investigate Osmosis in Potatoes The aim of this experiment is to investigate the movement of water in and out of plant cells. The cells chosen for study will be taken from potato tubers. Firstly I will explain what osmosis is. Osmosis is the passage of water from a region of high water concentration through a semi permeable membrane to a region of low water concentration. This definition contains three important statements: a) It is the passage of water through a semi permeable
