Cell Transport Experiment Worksheet

This document is a student worksheet for experiments on cell transport. It includes tables for the student to fill out documenting the results of three experiments: 1) measuring the turgor pressure of potato slices in solutions of varying salt concentration, finding that a 0% salt solution caused more stiffness, 1% was isotonic, and 2% and 10% caused less stiffness; 2) including a picture of a potato; and 3) observing the wilting of lettuce leaves in different solutions, finding that pure water kept leaves stiff but water with salt or Italian dressing caused wilting, including a picture of lettuce.
