Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The process described is osmosis, which is the diffusion of water across a membrane from an area of high water concentration (i.e. low solute concentration) to an area of low water concentration (i.e. high solute concentration). Osmosis does not require energy input or transport proteins, making it a form of passive transport.
