When you placed the eggs in vinegar to remove the shells, the eggs got bigger. Why? when you soaked a naked egg in distilled water, in which direction did the water move? Into or out of the egg? How do you know? What do you think, are the membranes in chicken eggs semipermeable? What's your evidence?
