...Brogan Walters Higher osmolarity in sweet potatoes than ordinary potatoes Biology 182 Lab, Thursday 11:00am Lab 5 Osmosis, Dialysis and Diffusion Laboratory 10/1/14 Introduction: Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a semi-permeable membrane. (1) This process depends on the difference of concentrations of solutes on each side of the membrane. In this experiment the osmolarity of two types of potatoes were compared, the sweet potato and the ordinary potato. The sweet potato is more nutrient dense than a normal potato, in that it has more sugar, fiber and vitamins than a normal potato.(3) The hypothesis is the sweet potato will have a higher osmolarity than the ordinary potato because of its more nutrient dense nature. The ordinary potato will see an increase also but not to the magnitude of the sweet potato. Methods: Fifteen potato cores were prepared from both the sweet and ordinary potato and trimmed to be 1cm long. Each core was weighed using a balance and set aside for later in the experiment, keeping them organized. There were five different solutions; 25 mL were placed in each beaker. For each type of potato 15 beakers were used, three for each of the known solutions. When each beaker was ready, one of the weighed cores was placed into each of them. Time was recorded when submersion commenced. After 45 minutes, the cores were pulled out and patted dry to resemble the starting moistness. Each core was weighed for the final weight. The data was...

...would like to go back to live, it’s a lot of jobs for bilingual people, things are not too expensive, and the economy is very stable now. In Lima there is a lot of Chinese food which is called chifa (several thousand Chinese restaurants in Lima) which is not the typical Chinese restaurants that we have in America, and fast food restaurants from around the world. In Lima we eat a lot of fish and rice. In the mountains they eat a lot of potatoes. In Cuzco they eat cuy (fried guinea pig) but that is not common in Lima. The Supermarkets are pretty wow, with everything you can imagine, and most things they have for tasting, including the alcohol. Still, there are no flavored chips, for some reason, Peru has not picked up the idea of flavored potato chips, which really is beyond me. But, the chocolate is good. Clothes, shoes etc., all much cheaper, although, I am yet to foray out and purchase anything, as my bags are full enough. I would love for many more people come to my country to visit and have a good time....

...plenty of time, it would be a splendid opportunity to try a good, slap-up supper. He said he would show us what could be done up the river in the way of cooking, and suggested that, with the vegetables and the remains of the cold beef and general odds and ends, we should make an Irish stew. It seemed a fascinating idea. George gathered wood and made a fire, and Harris and I started to peel the potatoes. I should never have thought that peeling potatoes was such an undertaking. The job turned out to be the biggest thing of its kind that I had ever been in. We began cheerfully, one might almost say skittishly, but our light-heartedness was gone by the time the first potato was finished. The more we peeled, the more peel there seemed to be left on; by the time we had got all the peel off and all the eyes out, there was no potato left – at least none worth speaking of. George came and had a look at it – it was about the size of a pea-nut. He said: “Oh, that won’t...

...Dialysis and Osmosis Beitz 1 Introduction: The cell membrane is not a solid structure. It is made of millions of smaller molecules that create a flexible container. Proteins and phospholipids make up most of the membrane structure. “The proteins are found around the holes and help move molecules in and out of the cell. There are also proteins attached to the inner and outer surfaces of the membrane” (BiologyKids, 15). There are receptor proteins which receive specific molecules, and there are transport proteins. There are two types of transport proteins which only allow specific molecules to enter and exits, therefore selectively permeable. Releasing chemicals is called Exocytosis, and taking in chemicals is endocytosis. “Scientists use the fluid mosaic model to describe the organization of phospholipids and proteins. The model shows you that phospholipid molecules are shaped with a head and a tail region. The head section of the molecule likes water (hydrophilic) while the tail does not (hydrophobic). Because the tails want to avoid water, they tend to stick to each other and let the heads face the watery (aqueous) areas inside and outside of the cell” (BiologyKids, 15). The two surfaces of molecules create the lipid bilayer. The interior of the lipid bilayer is “oily” and flexible like a soap bubble. Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane, which is a barrier that has holes large enough to allow water molecules to pass but small enough...

...5. Sensory Test Sensory test is the test to evaluate the different between the control pasta and the fortified pasta with chickpea flour. Based on the evaluation result form several studies, 5 to 10% of substitution level are showed no much significant different in term of colour, texture and flavour with control pasta. In addition, this range is the most acceptance level by the consumer. 6. Nutritional value Chickpea pasta also have high nutritional value in mineral and fat where 25% chickpea flour has a significantly lower glycaemic index and a higher mineral content than durum wheat pasta. Legumes are characterized by high contents of minerals, which depend on the species and cultivar and also on the characteristics of the soil where the plants are grown. The presence of non digestible constituents of chickpea flour is one of the factor making digestible starch slowly digest and low in starch hydrolysis. It includes resistant starch, oligosaccharide, polyphenols and lectins. The total starch level in chickpea indicates a dilution effect by the lesser starch content (Esmat, 2010). The final product of chickpea pasta resulted in rigid cell walls when it is boiled and mildly homogenized samples. As the milling raw chickpeas to flour, the starch then divided becoming a free granular state. Pasta with chickpea flour may be an alternative for people with special caloric or metabolic requirements (Diaz et al., 2008). In short, 5 to 15% of chickpea flour used in fortification have:...

...Potatoes, most people don’t spend time thinking about them but, they are an important ranking “with rice and wheat as one of the world’s leading food crops” (Reeves and Rushing 118). Potatoes are more than just a tasty side dish; did you know the potatoes also helped give rise to America. In his article, How Potatoes Changed the World, author Charles C. Mann writes that historians believe that the potato’s arrival in northern Europe from the Andes spelled an end to famine and food shortage in Europe. In his article Mann also quoted historian William H. McNeill on how the cultivation of potato in Europe led to an empire: “By feeding a rapidly growing populations, Potatoes permitted a handful of European nations to assert dominion over most of the world between 1750 and 1950.” (Mann). Whether mashed, baked or french fried potatoes are an important staple in the American diet because potatoes are easily stored and “can keep for up to about eight months, especially if they’re a variety known for storage quality (Poncavage 2014).”...

...from other peoples dumpsters. Eigher says ”people get too much from what they can earn, but they throw even if things in good condition.” As our economy grows and better technologies being developed, many people can afford cheap foods and in large quantities. With the lower costs of foods people buy more and waste more. For example, when I go to the nationwide wholefoodsseller ‘costco’, most items are sold in bulks as it is usually cheaper to buy items in bulk. Since Costco sells in bulk people this it is cheap and that they can consume all of it at once, before they exceed their shelf life. But in most cases people never finish everything they buy. When I bought an assorted pack of ‘lay’s potato chips’. I enjoyed eating them at first, but i was wrong. i eventually became sick of potato chips and the remaining packs were thrown out as they had exceeded their experation date. Another example of perfectly good items that get thrown out are clothes. Colors may fade, clothing get stained from last night’s curry, and the list continues. When this happens, most people do one of the 3 choices possible; just keep it and wear it, stitch up tears, new buttons and re-wear, or throw it. Most people would just wear the clothing if there is only a minor wear and tear, but if the damage is major; the clothing will be thrown out . People choose to throw out alot of perfectly good items wether it is food or clothing, Most people don’t know that alot of people can benefit from the things they...

... Also, growing demand can sometimes outpace refinery capacity. In the spring, refineries perform maintenance, which can place a pinch on the gasoline market. By the end of May, refineries are usually back to full capacity (Bonsor, & Grabianowski). Local retail station competition also plays a considerable role in the fluctuation of gas prices. Since a neighborhood would have many gas stations, each station has to adopt equivalent pricing policy as any increase in gasoline price would cause the customers to migrate to an adjacent gas station charging lesser price for gasoline.
