Questions<br />
1. What is measured when looking at the net change in displacement of the potato samples?<br />
2. Different types of potatoes have varying natural sugar concentrations. Explain how this<br />
may influence the experiment.<br />
3. Based on the data from this experiment, hypothesize which potato has the highest natural<br />
sugar concentration. Explain your reasoning.<br />
4. What was the texture and your observation of the potato samples prior to the experiment?<br />
After? Did it vary by type of potato?<br />
