Which statement describes the movement of water when a cell swells up and bursts due to osmosis? ® Water went into the cell because the concentration of water inside the
cell was lower than the concentration
outside the cell.
Water went out of the cell
outside the cell.
becayse the concentration of water inside the cell was
higher than the concentration
C The cell membrane used energy to move water into the cell through passive transport.
The cell membrane used energy to move water out of the cell through passive transport.

A. Water went into the cell because the concentration of water inside the

cell was lower than the concentration

outside the cell.

Explanation:

Osmosis occurs when there is low solute concentration to a higher solute concentration, thus the water outside the cell (having low concentration), would want to go inside the cell where there is a higher concentration. Hope this helps!
