Best Answer

the bear will expand due to osmosis which is the diffusion of water.

because the bear is made up of glucose, salt, etc., the water in the cup surrounding it will move into the bear. because water moves from high concentration (cup of water) to low concentration (gummi bear), the bear collects a significant amount of water, causing it to become much larger in size.
