Egg Lab

to determine and understand what circumstances materials will convey across the membrane of an egg”. Furthermore, the egg was placed into three differing solutions, maple syrup, tap dihydrogen monoxide, and brine, to illustrate that “depending upon the concentration of dihydrogen monoxide in an egg and that in its circumventing environment, dihydrogen monoxide may diffuse into or out of the egg”. In summation, to genuinely understand the lab and make a plausible prognostication one must first grasp the concepts of the cell membrane as a semi-permeable barrier and the kineticism of dihydrogen monoxide.
Cell membranes are semipermeable, denoting the membrane is a barrier to most, but not all molecules. Semi-permeability dissevered and bulwarks
Dihydrogen monoxide is one of the few simple molecules that can cross the phospholipid bilayer by diffusion, concretely osmosis. Osmosis is the diffusion of dihydrogen monoxide across a semipermeable membrane. However, the presence of a solute decreases the dihydrogen monoxide potential of a substance; in example, there is more dihydrogen monoxide per unit of volume in a glass of fresh-dihydrogen monoxide than there is in an equipollent volume of sea-dihydrogen monoxide. This point is responsible for two hypotheses, concerning the maple syrup solution and the tap dihydrogen monoxide solution. The projected hypothesis concerning the maple syrup solution was that the solution would be hypertonic. This projection was initially made through deduction. Syrup is a highly viscous solution in comparison to dihydrogen monoxide; however, it is mundane erudition that syrup contains dihydrogen monoxide. Most living organisms are virtually entirely composed of dihydrogen monoxide, such as humans, so it was surmised chickens were equipollent. Hence, it was deduced that there would be more dihydrogen monoxide in the egg, than in the syrup-making the maple syrup hypertonic. Dihydrogen monoxide diffuses through the process of
Hence, it would result in the egg losing mass. Crystal Hill Bio 101-Petty The second hypothesis concerned the egg in the tap dihydrogen monoxide. The logic abaft the hypothesis emanated from the phrenic conception sequence that tap dihydrogen monoxide is entirely dihydrogen monoxide, and the minerals found inside are negligible. Albeit the chicken egg is mostly dihydrogen monoxide, “mostly” dihydrogen monoxide is not “entirely” dihydrogen monoxide. So, it was sooth said that tap dihydrogen monoxide would hypotonic in cognition to the egg, and the egg would gain mass from dihydrogen monoxide being passed into the egg. Additionally, dihydrogen monoxide has the propensity to peregrinate from an area of higher
