Osmosis Demo

Mr. Anderson explains osmosis as the movement of water across a semi-permeable membrane from high to low concentration. He describes hypertonic solutions with higher solute concentrations and how water flows towards them. The video includes a molecular-level explanation and a classroom demo using dialysis tubing filled with corn syrup to illustrate osmosis in action.
