1. What did you think was going to happen in this experiment and why? You may find it helpful to state your answers to these questions as an "if-then" hypothesis-prediction. Be sure you have included a biological rationale that explains WHY you made this hypothesis/prediction.
2. How did the different concentrations of sucrose impact osmotic rate? Answer this question by creating a line graph that shows the results of your experiment
3. Explain why you think that the results shown in your graph support or refute your hypothesis (remember we never "prove" anything in science). Consider all your data and the overall data pattern as you answer this question. Don't ignore unusual data that may not seem to fit into a specific patterns ("outliers"). Explain what you think might be behind these unusual data points.
4. What is the biological significance of your results? What biological concepts explain completely why these events happened in the experiment? How do these results help you understand the biology of the cell and how materials move back and forth across the cell membrane?
5. Provide at least one full citation (make sure you include an in-text citation that pinpoints where you used this resource) for a resource you made use of in performing the experiment, understanding the concepts and writing this assignment.
