Question

A gummy bear is made up of sugar and gelatin, among other things. If a gummy bear sits in water, what will occur? Think about solute concentration.
A) The gummy bear will shrink because of osmosis or the movement of water from the cell


B) The gummy bear will lose its sugar because of active transport moving sugar molecule out of the membrane.


C)The gummy bear will not change because a gummy bear has an impermeable layer so osmosis cannot happen.


D) The gummy bear will increase in size because of osmosis or the movement of water into the cell


MULTIPLE CHOICE

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is D) The gummy bear will increase in size because of osmosis or the movement of water into the cell.

Explanation:

As the gummy bear contain sugar an gelatin,its osmotic pressure is greater than that of water.So when a gummy bear sits in water, the water molecules is transported into cell of that gummy bear because gummy bear is hypertonic to water in which it sits.

     As a result the gummy bear will increase in size.
