The Egg-Drop Challenge

Decent Essays
The egg-drop challenge was an success, for some people. Before the process of making the egg-drop for the project it was difficult because you had to make sure you had something protecting the egg. I made mines out of cardboard and popsicle sticks. The egg broke mainly because I had the parachute wrong because the parachute had a hole inside of it. I watched different people drop their eggs and like 90/100 eggs were broken. One persons egg was creative and it was very complicated to figure out how they put the egg there so it couldn’t break. One was made with rocks so it couln’t break and it didn’t. Some people had a great idea of how to make their egg different so it couldn’t break. The idea of making different types of egg barriers

    Once the egg was decalcified, it felt very fragile and bouncy. When the egg didn’t have a shell anymore, it was kept from seeping out by the “plasma membrane” (egg white), which was congealed by the soaking in vinegar. When the nucleus of the egg became visible, it looked very cloudy. The substance that entered/left the egg in each situation was water, due to the state of the egg, by way of osmosis, in a way of trying to balance the inside and outside the “cell” (egg), this balance is essential to functioning at the preferred isotonic state. This lab could be improved by using 2 different eggs, as the data seemed inaccurate when placing a hypotonic egg into a solution of corn syrup made the egg hypertonic, because there wasn’t a proper start weight in the egg when placed in the second solution.…

This completes the hypothesis because the high sucrose solution caused the egg to lose liquid and shrink in overall…

    I personally believe that Extend Fertility is offering a amazing thing women all over. As a young woman myself I know that there is a ticking clock on having an healthy pregnancy and healthy children and it has always been my understanding that the longer you wait to have children the harder it will be to carry them an after reading this case I understand it is because of the fact that the eggs of older women tend to of a lower quality.
