The diagram shows a root hair cell and surrounding soil particles. [Figure 3.1] Osmosis occurs when regions of higher and lower concentration of water molecules are separated by a partially permeable membrane. On the diagram, what are these regions?
This question uses a diagram from the original paper, which isn't shown here. Open the full paper from the past papers archive to see it.
Ahigher concentration of water molecules: 1, partially permeable membrane: 2, lower concentration of water molecules: 4
Bhigher concentration of water molecules: 1, partially permeable membrane: 3, lower concentration of water molecules: 4
Chigher concentration of water molecules: 4, partially permeable membrane: 2, lower concentration of water molecules: 1
Dhigher concentration of water molecules: 4, partially permeable membrane: 3, lower concentration of water molecules: 1
✓ Correct answer
B: higher concentration of water molecules: 1, partially permeable membrane: 3, lower concentration of water molecules: 4
