In brief:

Plants produce glucose through photosynthesis. Sugar is a form of glucose.

Adding sugar water to a plant does, in the short term offer small benefits as the plant is able to absorb small amount of glucose instead of using photosynthesis to produce it.

Long term use of sugar water on plants will result in the death of the plant! To much sugar in the soil solution prevents or hampers osmosis, resulting in ineffective water and nutrient uptake by the plant. This results in discolouration, stunting, wilting and eventually death.

Damage to the root system can be compounded as sugar offers a very good medium for fungal and bacterial colonies to develop in the soil, which my further damage a weakened root system.

the grape would shrivel up. This is because the water in the grape would leave it to try to balance out the sugar concentration.

Fresh grapes are soaked in water for 4-5 hoursThey are then transferred into a salty solution What happens to the fresh grapes when soaked in water?

when the grapes are soaked in water they become hypotonic and absorb water because they have a higher solute concentration than the water therefore the water diffuses into the grape. once moved to the salty solution, the solute concentration will be higher in the salt solution then the grape so then the grape will become hypertonic and water in the grape will diffuse into the solution to try to create homeostasis


Are fresh grapes Kosher?

Yes.


What happens to a fresh water organism in 20 percent of saline solution?

it dies since it enters a hypotonic solution thus making it shrink


Celery stalks that are immersed in fresh water for several hours become stiff and hard If left in a salt solution they become limp and soft From thsi you can deduce that thecells of the celery stalk?

hypotonic means dilute, hypertonic means concentrated. If celery becomes turgid in the fresh water then it is hypertonic to fresh water but hypotonic to sodium solution.


If fresh grapes contain 90 percent water by weight and dried grapes only 20 percent What will be the weight of the dried grapes if you begin with 20 kg of fresh grapes?

2.5 kg 20 kg fresh grapes will contain 2 kg of grapes and 18 kg water. In dried grape, grape concentration is 80%; that implies 2kg should be taken as 80%. So, total weight of dried grape is 2.5kg.

Where does reverse osmosis occur?

Reverse osmosis occurs when the water is moved across the membrane against the concentration gradient, from lower concentration to higher concentration. To illustrate, imagine a semipermeable membrane with fresh water on one side and a concentrated aqueous solution on the other side. If normal osmosis takes place, the fresh water will cross the membrane to dilute the concentrated solution. In reverse osmosis, pressure is exerted on the side with the concentrated solution to force the water molecules across the membrane to the fresh water side. Reverse osmosis is often used in commercial and residential water filtration. It is also one of the methods used to desalinate seawater. Sometimes reverse osmosis is used to purify liquids in which water is an undesirable impurity (e.g., ethanol).

Should you wash grapes and then refrigerate?

no, not necessarily, but if you do refrigerate grapes it helps keep them fresh and they will last longer.


Why do grapes shrink after a week in the sun?

Fresh grapes contain a very large amount of water. Exposure to the sun dries the grapes; the water evaporates out of them. This is the process of making raisins.
