Biology · Secondary 4 · Hard · Osmosis
A student places a dialysis tubing bag filled with distilled water into a beaker of concentrated sugar solution and leaves it for 30 minutes. What will most likely happen to the bag, and why?
- The bag shrinks because water moves out into the sugar solution by osmosis
- The bag swells because water moves into it from the sugar solution by osmosis
- The bag stays the same size because there is no concentration gradient
- The bag bursts because sugar moves rapidly into it by osmosis
