    The lid was three centimeters so the container with the lid was fifteen centimeters. What I did was I took some fluff out of the jar. Then I placed the egg inside the container with some fluff. After that I put the egg in the fluff and put the other fluff on top of it and buried the egg in fluff. I knew that if I got the egg to stay in motion it would never be in motion. When I dropped the container the fluff protected the egg like walls. The egg did not break because the fluff acted as a block to when the container hits the ground. The fluff was pushing against the egg so the egg wouldn’t bounce around in the container and hit the walls. I dropped the egg right…

    Throughout the six days of recording data, osmosis did occur. We soaked our egg (Eggar) in “Super Chill Peach Sparkling Water.” Eggar gain weight as he grew larger. He soaked up the water when he was in the sparkling water, so he could have an equilibrium. He was squishy, smooth, and (slightly) transparent too. On the last day Eggar was soaked in water, and he then lost weight. When we took him out of the water we noticed we had an air bubble inside of him. The liquid started with a higher water content, then due to osmosis, they had an equilibrium. The reason he must have lost weight when in water is Eggar had a higher water…
