When two solutions are separated by the membrane through which water can pass but starch cannot, the osmosis will occur.

Osmosis is described as the spontaneous movement of water through membrane from a region of lower solute concentration into a region of higher solute concentration. Water movement tends to equalize the solute concentrations on the two sides.

Answer:

Water will move from its region of high concentration towards the starch

Explanation:

As given in the problem statement , water can pass through the membrane but starch cannot pass through it. Thus, water will start permeating through the permeable membrane governed by the concept of osmosis where fluid at higher concentration starts moving towards the low concentration chamber.

Thus, water being at higher concentration on one side starts moving from its side to the side of starch and hence the starch solution level will rise while the level of water will lower down.

xenn [34]

When the patient who is nothing by mouth (NPO) (no food or fluids allowed) develops an adverse reaction to a new intravenous (IV) drug, then the nurse will take action like recording the reaction, stopping the further administration of the drug and notify the health care provider.

Nothing by mouth (NPO) is a period of time in which the patient is advised not to eat or drink anything. Doctors suggest avoiding eating food or drinking water during the medical or surgical procedure to ensure the correct report or successful operation of the patient.

NPO is a common practice, and it instructs that patients should not take solid and liquid before receiving general anaesthesia.
