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.

How does wet and dry barometer work?? Thnx
tatiyna

Wet barometer - The tool works by measuring atmospheric pressure to predict incoming weather. Since the glass is only filled halfway with water, the other half is exposed to the atmosphere. When the outdoor atmospheric pressure rises, the pressure in the glass decreases, and causes the water to move down the spout.

Dry barometer - A Torricellian barometer (sometimes called a mercury barometer) is an inverted (upside-down) glass tube standing in a bath of mercury. Air pressure pushes down on the surface of the mercury, making some rise up the tube. The greater the air pressure, the higher the mercury rises.

I hope this helps!
