The homogenate is centrifuged at a speed and time
designed to separate particular components.
The sediment at slow speeds will contain denser
components such as chloroplasts.
The supernatant may be centrifuged again at greater
speeds to extract less dense fractions.
The liquid left at the top of the centrifuge tube containing components too light to settle.Chopped up with a machine like a liquidiser.An isotonic liquid has a water potential equal to the water potential of a cell.
