Answer:

osmosis is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The process by which water diffuses from a region of greater concentration to a region of lesser concentration is called osmosis.

Osmosis is a process in which solvent moves through a selective semipermeable membrane into a more concentrated region.

There are three types of Osmotic solutions

  • isotonic solution where the osmotic pressure is the same across the membrane.
  • hypotonic solution where the osmotic pressure is lower compared to another solution.
  • hypertonic solution where the solute concentration is higher as compared to the other solution
