Question

1. examine the image below which shows the movement of molecules of * 2 points solute through the cell membrane. identify the concentration levels of solute on each side of the membrane. solute cell membrane a b side a side b low concentration high concentration

Explanation:

The image shows the movement of solute molecules from Side A to Side B. In diffusion (a passive transport process where molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration without the use of energy), we count the number of solute molecules on each side. Side A has more solute molecules (higher density of red - colored solute particles), so it is the side with high concentration. Side B has fewer solute molecules, so it is the side with low concentration.

Answer:

Side A: high concentration; Side B: low concentration.
