Question

We will not get similar result in potato osmoscope if we use boiled potato instead of raw potato.​

Answer 1

Answer:

On boiling, most of the cells of the potato become dead. Due to this the cells become inactive and cannot undergo the process of osmosis. When there is no osmosis the water level inside the cavity of potato shows no change.

Water accumulates insides the hollow. The boiled potato has half dead cells, so no process of osmosis occurred. This experiment proved our hypothesis wrong, but proved that Osmosis occurs in a raw potato and not in a boiled potato.
