Detailed Solution

The osmotic pressure (p) of a solution at constant temperature is directly proportional to its concentration C, according to Vant Hoff Boyles Law (i.e., moles per litre)
C=nv
where n represents in volume V litres of solution, the number of moles of solute present.  So osmatic pressure depends on molar mass.

So, required option is A) directly proportional to the concentration
