A.
The level of X would rise, Y would rise -
C.
The level of X and Y stands the same -
D.
The level of Y would rise, X would fall.
Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation
Osmosis is the spontaneous net movement of solvent molecules through a selectively permeable membrane into a region of higher solute concentration, in the direction that tends to equalize the solute concentrations on the two sides Therefore, the level of Y (region of higher concentration) would rise, X (region of lower concentration) would fall to equalize the solute concentrations on the two sides
This explain osmosis
