... in size. This is because the cell is fully plasmolysed and no more water can leave the cell. Apparatus For the experiment you will require: Cylinders of potato with a diameter of 6.5mm a borer with a diameter of 6.5mm Sucrose solution of varying strengths (ranging from 0M to 1M) A burette to measure out the sucrose solution.
