Osmosis can be defined as ________.the diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membraneactive transport across a selectively permeable membranethe diffusion of any small molecule across a selectively permeable membranethe diffusion of a solute across a selectively permeable membrane

Osmosis is considered passive transport.Group of answer choicesTrueFalseNext

Describe osmosis.

Which of the following is the best definition of osmosis?The movement of oxygen molecules across a partially permeable membrane from a region of higher oxygen concentration to a region of lower oxygen concentration.The net movement of dissolved substances from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.The net movement of water molecules across a partially permeable membrane from a region of higher water concentration to a region of lower water concentration.A process that moves substances across a membrane from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration, using energy transferred during respiration.

Which statement best describes the process of osmosis? Which statement best describes the process of osmosis? The movement of water through a semi permeable membrane from high to low water concentration. The movement of solutes from low to high concentration. The movement of solutes/particles from an area of high to low concentration. The movement of solutes through a protein channel from high to low concentration.
