An investigation involving osmosis and plant cells was performed by a group of students Sweet potatoes were used as the source
of plant cells in the experiment. A sweet potato was diced into evenly sized and shaped cubes and placed in beakers containing
various glucose concentrations. The experimental setup is shown in the table here.
Which statements accurately predict the beaker in which water will enter the cells at a greater rate, causing an increase in mass for
the sweet potato cells?
