What happens if a potato slice is placed in tap water?
If a potato slice is placed in tap water, the potato will absorb water through the process of osmosis. This causes the potato cells to swell and the slice to increase in size. The potato slice may also become softer due to the increased water content.
Does potato slice have starch?

When a carrot slice is placed in tap water for several hours why does it become very stiff?
When a carrot slice is placed in tap water, it absorbs the water through a process called osmosis. The water moves into the carrot cells, causing them to become turgid and swell, making the carrot slice stiff. This happens because the water pressure inside the cells increases, providing structural support to the carrot slice.
A potato slice when placed in water for several hours will become very stiff because?
the water absorbed by the potato slice through osmosis causes its cells to swell and become turgid, increasing the rigidity of the slice. This process, known as turgor pressure, gives plants and plant-based foods their structure when they absorb water.

How does the process of osmosis affect a potato slice that is saturated with water?
Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a semi-permeable membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. When a potato slice is saturated with water, it means that the cells in the potato have absorbed as much water as they can hold. In this state, osmosis will not have a significant effect on the potato slice because there is no concentration gradient for water to move across the membrane.
