Imagine a balloon is made from a membrane that is permeable to water but not sucrose molecules. Ifthe balloon is filled with fresh water and then placed in a beaker filled with 50% sucrose solution, the balloon will . a not change in size or volume. . b. get smaller as it loses water . c. get larger as it gains water . d. get larger at first, but then shrink to a size smaller than its original volume . e.get smaller at first, but then increase to a size larger than its original volume. 2.

Sharks living in the ocean are isotonic to their environments, that is, the concentration of solutes inside their cells is the same as the concentration of solutes in their external environment. How will osmosis affect shark cells in their natural environment? . a Osmosis will not affect shark cells, because there will be no net movement of water into or out of the cells b Osmosis will cause water to enter the cells making them larger c Osmosis will cause water to leave the cells causing the cells to get smaller .Explanation / Answer
1. Option b : the balloon will shrink and lose water as osmosis will occur from region of higher solvent concentration (inside of balloon) to region of lower solvent concentration (outside of balloon).
2. Option c: the balloon will increase in size due to uptake of water from region of higher solvent concentration (outside of balloon).
