What are some sources of error found in osmosis experiment​

Answer:


Well, you may have errors in measuring the concentration of your solution, or in weighing the potato slices before and after the experiment. If you use different potatoes, or different parts of the potato are different (eg one part for some reason dryer) then that could add to the error. If you put a potato into an isotonic solution it should remain the same weight, but if you have more solute in the water than in the potato, water from the potato will be drawn out (like salting a snail or tomato), but if the water has less solute than the potato, it will be drawn into the potato, making it heavier.

Answer:

In the experiment it includes several separate tests and errors that can be easily occurring. One of the errors is the potato cores were not necessarily all the same weight to even begin with. However, another source of error is the cores were not exactly completley covered by the solution, which is due to the larger beaker.

How does photosynthesis relate to the formation of dna?
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

During photosynthesis, plants take in carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) from the air and soil. Within the plant cell, the water is oxidized, meaning it loses electrons, while the carbon dioxide is reduced, meaning it gains electrons. This transforms the water into oxygen and the carbon dioxide into glucose.

Explanation: hope this helps

During the process of photosynthesis, plants use energy from the Sun to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen
g100num [7]
Well, we can rule out diffusion and osmosis because these are passive processes, so we're left with A and C. I'd say A, because the energy is used in muscle contraction.

Which is the cause of erosion?
lions [1.4K]
I believe flowing water would create erosion because tectonic plate movement and earthquakes are almost the same thing, and liquid rock is basically lava, and that only heats rock, rather than breaking it into smaller pieces, which is what flowing water does.
