Which of the following describes how osmosis occurs across a cell membrane/ A. Solutes move from an area of high water concentration to an area of low water concentration. B. Water moves from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration. C. Both water and solutes move across the cell membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. D. Solutes move from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration. E. Water moves from an area of high solute concentration to an area of low solute concentration.

The transport of water across a membrane from a solution of lower solute concentration to a solution of higher solute concentration is best described as: a) osmosis. b) facilitated diffusion. c) receptor-mediated transport. d) active transport. e) general diffusion.
The rate of facilitated diffusion of a molecule across a membrane will increase as the concentration gradient of the molecule across the membrane increases to a certain point. Eventually, an increase in the concentration of the molecule will not cause any further increase in facilitated diffusion. This is because: a. as the concentration gradient increases, molecules interfere with one another. b. there are a limited number of carrier proteins in the membrane. c. the increased concentration gradient causes a situation far from equilibrium. d. the diffusion constant depends on the concentration gradient.
