Egg Osmosis is the process of shrinking and expanding. for (eg): An egg is placed in corn syrup for 60 minutes to show osmosis. The egg is then placed in fresh water to show the reverse effect.
osmosis, which is diffusion of water across a membrane from an area with lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration to equalize the concentration on both sides of the membrane.
lose because of osmosis:) your welcome.
lysozyme will diffuse in to the cell
The cell will experience crenation and shrink. The cell will lose water through osmosis when placed in a hypertonic solution.
Plasmolysis is experienced. This is shrinkage or contraction of the protoplasm away from the wall of a living plant or bacterial cell, caused by loss of water through osmosis. Osmosis is the movement of water from area of high concentration to area of low concentration
Try it yourself !

If a cell is placed in salt water, water leaves the cell by osmosis.
If a cell is placed in salt water, water leaves the cell by osmosis.

When a potato slice/piece is placed in pure water, it gains mass and appears to be blown up. This is because the water is travelling into the potato because it has a lower concentration of water inside it.
osmosis, which is diffusion of water across a membrane from an area with lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration to equalize the concentration on both sides of the membrane.
When a plant cell is placed in an hypotonic solution it becomes swollen and hard. The cell takes in water by osmosis and starts to swell, but the cell wall prevents it from bursting.
Nothing happens they stay intact, because they do not lose or take in any water by osmosis ; only because salt has about the same concentration as cells do.
In Osmosis, water moves from the region of high water concentration through a semi permeable membrane to a region of low water concentration. Osmosis happens because of diffence in concentration of water different regions.
