Question

Observe the following bowls of chick peas . Second picture shows the condition of chick peas 4 hours after soaking them in water. Why have they become swollen up ?

Answer 1

As these chickpeas were kept in hypotonic solution (diluted), water will more flow into the chickpeas then coming out of it due to osmosis. Now, as more water goes inside the chickpeas, after 4 hrs they swell up
