Water moves across a selectively permeable membrane: From (a) Region of higher water potential $\quad$ Region of lower water potential (b) Lower water concentration Higher water concentration (c) Higher solute concentration Lower solute concentration (d) Region of higher osmotic potential Region of lower osmotic potential
Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a semipermeable membrane. A solution with higher solute concentration will move to one with lower solute concentration. Conversely, a solution with lower solute concentration will move to one with higher solute concentration. If two solutions have the same concentration, water will always move from one solution to the other.
