The similarity in the arrangement and structure exists mostly with the quads because we, just like cats, need to be able to flex and extend them so we need a lot of strength in them.
The answer is B, osmosis is the movement of water. Diffusion is the movement to chemicals and molecules.
Both osmosis and diffusion are movement of molecules from a region of higher concentration of the substance moving to lower concentration down the concentration gradient. However, osmosis is only for the movement of water molecules, while diffusion is for any type of substances including liquid or gas. So we can also say osmosis is a type of diffusion actually.
And also, both of these movement of molecules does not require extra energy, they all happen due to natural tendency.
In an isotonic environment, the relative concentrations of solute and water are equal on both sides of the membrane. ... If placed in a hypotonic solution, a red blood cell will bloat up and may explode, while in a hypertonic solution, it will shrivel—making the cytoplasm dense and its contents concentrated—and may die.
If a cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, water will leave the cell, and the cell will shrink. In an isotonic environment, the relative concentrations of solute and water are equal on both sides of the membrane. ... When a cell is placed in a hypotonic environment, water will enter the cell, and the cell will swell.
