Question

osmosis is best defined as the movement of
multiple choice
molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration.
molecules from an area of low concentration to an area of higher concentration.
water molecules across a membrane from an area of low water concentration to an area of higher concentration.
water molecules across a membrane from an area of high water concentration to an area of lower concentration.
water molecules using atp in active transport.

Explanation:

Osmosis is the passive - transport of water molecules. It occurs across a semi - permeable membrane from an area of high water concentration (low solute concentration) to an area of low water concentration (high solute concentration).

Answer:

water molecules across a membrane from an area of high water concentration to an area of lower concentration
