GUmmy bear experiment - OSMOSIS
Osmosis is the diffusion (movement) of water molecules through a semi permeable surface from an area of higher concentration to lower concentration.
The gummy bear in this experiment will act as the semipermeable surface, allowing water molecules to flow in and out of the gummy bear. ... This was a prime example of osmosis. |

Real life examples of Osmosis:
OSMOSIS is why:
• you get thirsty when you eat something salty or sweet.
• you can't drink sea water
• you have to drink water after sweating a lot.

PRUNED FINGER/TOES:
The water is the bathtub is less concentrated and it is trying to cause equilibrium by using osmosis to get into your body.
