Question: How will osmosis change the mass of an egg during cell membrane transport?

Hypothesis: The mass of the egg will change in relation to the amount of corn syrup placed with
it.

The egg is meant to mimic the membrane of a cell. The process of osmosis is modeled by the
corn syrup in the jar with the egg. The egg mass changes in relation to the concentration of corn
syrup located with it. The higher the concentration of the corn syrup, the lower the final mass of
the egg will be.
