Answer:

Option D is correct

Explanation:

Water potential is high in a region where solutes are less and vice versa.

So water moves from high potential (low solute concentration) to low potential (high solute concentration).

Answer: D. From low solute concentration to high solute concentration.

Explanation:

Osmosis is a process of movement of the molecules of the solvent like water passing through a semipermeable membrane like plasma membrane from a low concentration of the solute to the more concentration of the solute. Osmosis is a kind of passive transport, as it requires energy to occur.

For example, the movement of water molecule across the plasma or cell membrane into a cell with a high concentration of solute.
