Which is an example of osmosis?

potassium ions moving in and out of an animal cell

carbon dioxide moving into the leaf cells of a plant

oxygen moving into the bloodstream from the lungs

water moving into the root cells of a plant

Answer 1

An example of osmosis is water moving into the root cells of a plant. Osmosis specifically refers to the movement of water across a semipermeable membrane from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration. In this case, water moves into the root cells where the concentration of solutes is higher.
