Question

Which of the following types of passive transport involves the movement of water and solute molecules due to hydrostatic pressure?

A. osmosis

B. filtration

C. simple diffusion

D. facilitated diffusion

Answer 1

I think the answer is D. facilitated diffusion

Answer 2

Answer: Osmosis

Step-by-step explanation:

Osmosis can be defined as the movement of water molecules across the semi permeable membrane.

The movement of water along with some particles is possible due to hydro static pressure created by water.

The movement of water and solute particles takes place along the concentration gradient.
