What Did I Learn From This Lab?
In this lab, I have observed and confirmed that not all plants have the same osmolarity level, nor would all cells in general. The ratio of solutes to water in solutions needed to create an isotonic environment for a cell varies greatly, as a solution is isotonic between 0.2 and 0.4 moles of sucrose for the potato, but between 0.6 and 0.8 moles of sucrose for the beet. I have also learnt the effects of certain vegetables being in hypotonic, hypertonic, and isotonic solutions by their change in mass.
