Question

which of the following describes the direction of water movement in the example shown? select all that apply. a. from an area of higher solute concentration to an area of lower solute concentration b. from an area of lower water concentration to an area of higher water concentration c. from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration d. from an area of higher water concentration to an area of lower water concentration

Explanation:

Osmosis is the movement of water across a semi - permeable membrane. Water moves from an area of higher water concentration (lower solute concentration) to an area of lower water concentration (higher solute concentration) to equalize the solute concentration on both sides.

Answer:

C. From an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration
D. From an area of higher water concentration to an area of lower water concentration
