Aloiza [94]

The correct option is A: have a faster rate of osmosis

A cell containing many aquaporins will have a faster rate of osmosis.

Aquaporins are micro water channels within the membrane that allow for the exchange of water and other neutral molecules over the biological membranes of other organisms.

Due to the presence of Aquaporins in plants, they have a high diversity of regulation properties, localizations, and transport selectivity.

The rate of osmosis increases as the aquaporins facilitate the transfer of water at a faster rate.
