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.

Is an egg influenced by osmosis and diffusion?
An egg is influenced by the osmosis. Below the eggshell is an adjacent semi-permeable membrane. So if you boil an egg and take out the covering and then keep is in sugar solution for some time, it will shrink because of osmosis of water.
How does osmosis occur in an egg cell?
Osmosis occurs in an egg cell if you place it in liquids. If you put it in vinegar, the egg's shell will start to dissolve. Then, you can test osmosis in water or salt water. Because the egg is considered a cell, it will swell the egg cell with plain water (meaning it will increase the egg's mass). With salt water, the egg cell will shrink in mass.
When the vinegar absorbed into the egg and caused it to expand This was an example of?
Osmosis. The egg is hypertonic and the vinegar is hypotonic.
Provide the first page from two internet sites concerning osmosis and the egg lab?

What process is the diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane?
This is the process of osmosis. The membrane allows a solvent (usually water) to move from an area with lower solute concentration to one with greater concentration.

Does osmosis occur in a salted egg?
yes
How does the egg soak up the vinegar?
Osmosis
How are diffusion and osmosis similar?
diffusion is to make materials collide and osmosis is when water goes into a material:)for osmosis try the egg expierment!
Osmosis and raw egg and salt?
Osmosis only apply to water, the word your looking for is Diffusion
Is salted egg an example of osmosis?
osmosis is demonstrated in the process of making salted egg. eggs are submerged in a brine solution for a period of time. because the egg shell is permeable salt enters. water is also removed from the egg in this process.
When the vinegar absorbed into the egg and caused it to expand This was an example of?
Osmosis. The egg is hypertonic and the vinegar is hypotonic.
Why does an egg deflate-shrink after being put into syrup?
because of osmosis
Is it osmosis or diffusion if you put an egg in vinegar?
If you put an egg in vinegar, then this process would be called osmosis because osmosis is the movement of solvent particles (in this vinegar), while diffusion is the movement of gas, solute and solvent particles from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration.
What will happen if a egg went in to salt water?
If the egg was raw then the inside would shrivel up due to osmosis.
When a sea urchin egg is remove from the ocean and placed in freshwater the egg swells and bursts which of these causes water to enter the egg?
osmosis high salt in egg causes water to enter eggs permeable membrane via osmosis to point of bursting egg.
