    Based on the figure given below which of the following statements is not correct? (a) Movement of solvent molecules will take place from chamber A to B (b) Movement of solute will take place from A to B (c) Presence of a semipermeable is a pre-requisite for this process to occur (d) The direction and rate of osmosis depends on both the pressure gradient andconcentration gradient

    Answer:

                      (b) Movement of water will take place from chamber A to B. It is not the solute which will move from chamber A to B.
