Answer» Your answer is option B. diffusion of soluteExplanation: WATER moves across cell MEMBRANES by diffusion, in a process known as osmosis. Osmosis refers specifically to the movement of water across a semipermeable membrane, with the SOLVENT (water, for example) moving from an area of low solute (dissolved material) concentration to an area of high solute concentration. |
