Question

In osmosis, water molecules move a from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration b from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration

Answer 1

In osmosis, water molecules move **from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration**. This means that water will move toward the area where there are more solute particles (like salt or sugar) dissolved in the solution. This movement continues until there is an equal concentration of solute on both sides of a semipermeable membrane, balancing the concentrations.

So, to clarify:
- **A** is not correct (high to low concentration).
- **B** is the proper way to describe the movement of water in osmosis, focusing on solute concentrations.
