In osmosis, water molecules move with the concentration gradient, therefore no energy is used. this is an example of:
a. inside of cell has more salt

b. both sides have equal amounts of salt

c. outside of cell has more salt

The correct option is A. Inside of cell has more salt

Explanation:

When there will be more solute inside the cell than outside of the cell, then a concentration gradient will develop due to this uneven distribution. Water will move inside of the cell through a process known as osmosis. As the water molecules are moving along the concentration gradient, no energy will be used during this process.

The mechanism of osmosis is very essential in maintaining the turgidity of a cell.

b is the correct answer
