Rate of Glucose uptake by yeast cells


You are required to plan an investigation to find out the rate of glucose uptake by yeast cells varies with glucose concentration

material resources
- 10% glucose solution
- disilled water
-yeast suspension
- Benedicts reagent
I have done the introduction, apparatus required, but im unsure on what quanitity i should use to make various glucose concentrations and i don;t know how to go about with the method :/
I was wondering if u guys be able to help me, thanksss

you have to dilute the glucose solution. you start with 10%, then 5%, 1%, 0.5%. it depends on how many readings you need.

to dilute you need to add a specific amount of water to the solution. you have to calculate that amount.
