Question
during osmosis, water will always flow across a membrane toward the solution that has ______. equal concentrations of solvents, equal concentrations of solutes, the higher concentration of solutes, the higher concentration of solvents, i dont know yet
Osmosis is the movement of water across a semi - permeable membrane. Water moves from an area of lower solute concentration (higher solvent concentration) to an area of higher solute concentration (lower solvent concentration) to try to equalize the solute concentrations on both sides of the membrane. So during osmosis, water flows toward the solution with the higher concentration of solutes.
