Question
During osmosis,
water moves away from the solution with the higher osmotic pressure.
water moves into a hypotonic solution.
the solute moves against its concentration gradient.
all of the above events would occur.
none of the above events would occur.
What cation plays a critical role in the absorption of nutrients?
sodium
chloride
calcium

Explanation / Answer
Osmosis is defined as the movement of water from the region of low solute concentration (hypotonic) to the region of high solute concentration(hypertonic) through a semipermeable membrane along the concentration gradient. Therefore from the given options none of the option is correct.
P.S. I want to know if the second ques is a MCQ? Because i just can't understand the layout of the table given. Tell me about this ASAP.
(Generally sodium and chloride ions alongwith the potassium ions play an important role in maintaining the cation-anion balance in the cell)
