Question
after the shells were removed, students obtained the mass of the shell - less eggs. students then soaked the eggs in a variety of solutions: vinegar, 10% salt water, corn syrup (kayro), and distilled water. after 24 hours, the eggs were removed from their respective solutions, dried off, and massed. the results are recorded in the data table provided. this model shows a plant cell in a solution. solutions can be hypotonic, hypertonic, or isotonic to the cell. which one of the solutions tested demonstrates the water movement shown in the model?
The model shows water moving into the cell. Hypotonic solutions have a lower solute - concentration than the cell, causing water to move into the cell. Distilled water is hypotonic. Vinegar at the start can also be considered hypotonic in this context as it allows water to move into the cell. Kayro syrup is hypertonic and would cause water to move out of the cell.
