Answer:

B. Glucose will move from solution B to Solution A.

Step-by-step explanation:

A solution will always move in a direction of high concentration to low concentration in normal circumstances. Since Solution B has 5% glucose and Solution A has 1% glucose, Solution B has a higher concentration of glucose, which will move into Solution A till equilibrium is achieved.
