FROM | TO | |
(a) | Low water potential | High water potential |
(b) | High solute concen | Low solute concen. |
(c) | High osmotic potential | Low osmotic potential |
(d) | A hypotonic solution (less solute) | A hypertonic solution (more solute) |
Ans. (d) It is the migration of solvent through a semipermeable membrane to keep the concentration equal.
