Well, we can rule out diffusion and osmosis because these are passive processes, so we're left with A and C. I'd say A, because the energy is used in muscle contraction.
The answer is B.<span>Large patches. Sorry man but some plants grow in many cracks in the asphalt.</span>
<span>Mosses receive their water from rainfall and most of their nutrients are dissolved in this water that has accumulated as dust on them. Their nutrient uptake is effected by the osmosis. Highly concentrated nutrients can kill them because they have no ability to regulate the absorption.</span>
Answer is A. (commensalism)

Another thing, other than death, which can happen would be a higher bodily temperature for example.
