Question

osmosis is defined as the movement of water across a membrane from an area of __ solute concentration inside the cell to an area of __ solute concentration outside the cell. low; low high; low high; high low; high osmosis does not move water.

Explanation:

Osmosis is the passive movement of water across a semi - permeable membrane. It occurs from an area of high water concentration (low solute concentration) to an area of low water concentration (high solute concentration). So water moves from an area of high solute concentration inside the cell to an area of low solute concentration outside the cell when there is a concentration gradient.

Answer:

B. high; low
