Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
____ is the diffusion of water molecules from a dilute solution towards a concentrated solution, down the water’s concentration gradient, across a partially permeable membrane.
A
Osmosis
B
Diffusion
C
Active Transport
D
Transpiration
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a partially permeable membrane from a dilute solution (high concentration of water) to a concentrated solution (low concentration of water).

Detailed explanation-2: -Osmosis is a type of simple diffusion in which water molecules diffuse through a selectively permeable membrane from areas of high water concentration to areas of lower water concentration.

Detailed explanation-3: -The diffusion of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane is known as osmosis.

Detailed explanation-4: -Osmosis is the process of net movement of water across a permeable membrane driven by a difference in solute concentration on two sides of the membrane.

Detailed explanation-5: -Osmosis. Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a semipermeable membrane according to the concentration gradient of water across the membrane.
