Which term describes osmosis:

Question

1. Movement of water across a semipermeable membrane down a concentration gradient from high to low, using energy.
2 Movement of water across a semipermeable membrane down a concentration gradient from high to low, using NO energy.
3.Movement of water across a semipermeable membrane up a concentration gradient from high to low, using energy.
4. Movement of water across a semipermeable membrane up a concentration gradient from high to low, using NO energy

Answer 1

The correct term that describes osmosis is:

2. Movement of water across a semipermeable membrane down a concentration gradient from high to low, using NO energy.

Osmosis is the passive movement of water molecules through a semipermeable membrane, driven by the concentration gradient, without the use of energy.
