Which of the following is true about starch and iodine diffusion?     Starch was not able to diffuse through the membrane of the dialysis bag because it is positively charged. Iodine was able to diffuse through the membrane of the dialysis bag because it is negatively charged.     Starch and iodine were both not able to diffuse through the membrane of the dialysis bag because they are very large molecules.     Starch was not able to diffuse through the membrane of the dialysis bag because it is a very large polymer. Iodine was able to diffuse through the membrane of the dialysis bag because it is a small molecule.     Starch and iodine switched places in the experiment because they both moved down their concentration gradients.
