Let's pretend that after the cake was baked in the oven, Ms. Frizzle told the kids that she had an allergy to eggs. Could the kids separate the eggs from the cake after it was baked?

• Yes! The cake is a mixture. They can easily pull out the eggs.

• No! The cake is a solution. They can't see where the eggs are anymore, so they can't separate them.

• Yes! It is easily to separate the ingredients because the cake is a solution.

• No! The eggs are magnetic and nothing can separate items if they are magnetic.
