Solution

The correct option is A Osmosis
Osmosis is defined as the movement of solvent or water from a region or solution having its higher concentration to a region or solution having its lower concentration. Osmosis does not describe the movement of solute particles. In the figure, the solute particles are not moving and only the movement of solvent particles is depicted. Hence, the figure shows the process of osmosis.
