Find out the correct statement.

Easy

A

Movement of solvent molecules will take place from chamber B to A.
B

Movement of solute will take place from chamber B to A.
C

Presence of a semi permeable membrane is not a prerequisite for this process to take place.
D

The direction and the rate of osmosis depend upon both the pressure gradient and concentration gradient that exist between A and B.

Solution

Movement of solvent molecules will take place from chamber A to B because chamber A has higher value of water potential.
Semi permeable membrane does not allow movement of solute molecules through it.
