From our observations we believe that the red blood cells appeared smaller because there was a greater concentration of water inside the cell, rather than outside the cell, so the water must have moved across the membrane to help in making the environment isotonic, and furthermore maintaining homeostasis. There was a greater concentration of water inside the cell because there is a higher concentration of sugar outside of the cell. In other words, we support explanation two. To explain that explanation two is correct, I first must go over how we setup the experiment. We took a dialysis bag and filled it with distilled water, then we poured milk into a beaker. Before moving on to anything else, we weighed the initial mass …show more content…
