Solution

The correct option is C Osmosis.
Osmosis is the flow of solvent from their higher concentration region to their lower concentration region through a semipermeable membrane. The raisin membrane is semipermeable hence it absorbs water. This process continues till the cells become turgid. Thus the correct answer is option B.
