The potato will shrivel up and release its water into the sugar water environment in order to dilute the surroundings until the concentration of sugar water is the same on the inside of the cell as the outside.
And This is called Osmosis
Definition of Osmosis : Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a region of higher concentrated water to a region of water

Which contains more reducing sugars potato juice or onion juice?
Potato juice contains more reducing sugars than onion juice. Potatoes are starchy vegetables with higher natural sugar content compared to onions, which are low in sugar. Therefore, potato juice is likely to have more reducing sugars.
What plants produce sucrose?
Plants that produce sucrose include sugar cane, sugar beets, and certain fruits like sugarcane, sugar beet, and sugar maple trees.
What is the sucrose molarity of a potato?
The sucrose molarity of a potato can vary depending on factors such as the type of potato, growing conditions, and storage. Typically, the sucrose molarity in a potato ranges from 0.1 to 0.5 mol/L.
What change will occur if a piece of peeled potato is dropped in a concentrated sugar solution?
The potato may show some shrinking, but the more observable change is loss in mass of the peeled potato. Water will move out of the potato by osmosis. In osmosis, the water moves from the area of higher concentration to the area of lower concentration. There is lower water concentration outside of the potato because of the high amount of sugar dissolved in it. Depending on the concentration differences between the potato and the solution, water loss will continue until an equilibrium is reached. The potato piece will become flaccid (floppy)/plasmolysed, because of the water loss it has suffered. Shrinkage results from loss of turgor pressure in the potato, as a result of it becoming plasmolysed.
What is the journey from the air to a chip on a plate of a carbon?
Carbon exists in the air primarily in the form of carbon dioxide (CO2). It is absorbed into plant leaves and used as an ingredient for the synthesis of sugar by means of photosynthesis. If that plant leaf happens to be part of a potato plant, then the sugar may make its way to the root, where it can be transformed into a carbohydrate, and then when farmers dig up the potato, they sell it to a chip factory where it becomes part of a chip which gets sold to a consumer who puts it on a plate, voila.
What happens to a potato when sugar is added to it?
starch is a sugar...
What is thefunction of sugar in sugar concentrate?
Sugar makes food taste sweet and is by itself a "fuel" for our body. A concentrate means to reduce a large quantity of something into a smaller, stronger quantity. In this case, sugar concentrate will be a smaller amount, but will taste much sweeter and you need to add less of it to give the same taste. Sugar is reduced into sugar concentrate, so it's function is that of a base material.
If you put sugar in a peeled potato what will happen?
Osmosis will happen. The water will move from the potato into the sugar solution. The potato will lose mass and shrink.
How much sugar is there in potato chips?
most potato chips don't have sugar in them at all but I'm 100% knowing there are different flavors for potato chip so hey maby there might be a brand or flavor the have sugar in them!
What will happen to the potato when place is a concentrated sugar solution?
When a potato is placed in a concentrated sugar solution, water will move out of the potato cells via osmosis, resulting in the potato shrinking and becoming soft and limp. This is because the sugar solution has a higher solute concentration than the potato cells, causing water to move from an area of higher water concentration (inside the potato) to an area of lower water concentration (the sugar solution).
Why is it more difficult to make a liquid concentrate out of high sugar content drinks?
thats because drinks with higher sugar content are harder to turn into a liquid concentrate
What is percent total sugar in sweet potato?
There are approximately 13g of sugar in a baked sweet potato. It is never listed in percentages.
Does concentrate juice contain sugar?
Juice that is concentrate has added sugar and flavorings that are not good for the body. This can reduce the immune response and irritate acid reflux disease and stomach ulcers.
Does potato juice increase sugar?
yes
What contains sugar and starch?
a sweet potato ?
What is the simile for sweet potato?
as sweet at sugar
How do people get sugar from nature?
By eating plants. or if they want to concentrate it they use crops like sugar cane or sugar beet and refine the sugar out of them.
