Observations and Data:
Describe what happened to your egg (Day 1-Day 7) Review your data table and explain what
happened to your egg when it was submerged in the various liquids.
Conclusion:
Paragraph 1: Describe the purpose of your investigation. What does the egg represent in this
investigation? State your problem. Explain what you did to test your hypothesis.
Paragraph 2: Explain why your hypothesis was correct or incorrect from your observations or
data. Use data to support your claims. Example: One day X when the egg was submerged in XX
liquid, the mass of the egg increased by # grams. This increase illustrates that the egg went a
process called osmosis. Osmosis is…
Apply your understanding of osmosis, diffusion, active transport, and passive transport to
explain what happened to your egg during the investigation.
Paragraph 3:
List one thing you learned and describe how it applies to a real-life situation.
Discuss possible errors that could have occurred in the collection of data (experimental errors)
*Attach the following to the final lab report:
1. Mass Data Table and Histogram (bar graph)
2. Circumference Data Table and Line Graph
3. Scale drawing of the egg and colored illustration/description
