I wouldn’t think anything would happen because the egg has a shell. I would imagine that the shell is unlike a cell membrane because its job is to not allow substances in. Accordingly, it would not have any properties of a cell membrane; low permeability and protein channels absent would mean that processes such as osmosis, diffusion, active transport wouldn’t be possible. Effectively, water can’t move in or out so the egg won’t shrink and shrivel up or swell and burst due to the movement of water out or into the egg (cell) respectively.

Describe how greenhouse gases contribute to climate change
vladimir1956 [14]
Greenhouse gases arise naturally, and are part of the make-up of our atmosphere. Earths conditions are just right to allow life, including us, to flourish. Part of what makes Earth so amenable is the naturally-arising greenhouse effect, which keeps the planet at a friendly 15 °C (59 °F) on average. But in the last century or so, humans have been interfering with the energy balance of the planet, mainly through the burning of fossil fuels that give off additional carbon dioxide into the air. The level of carbon dioxide in Earth’s atmosphere has been rising consistently for decades and traps extra heat near the surface of the Earth, causing temperatures to rise.
