If plants do not get watered, they will start to wilt because their central vacuoles are empty. When they get water again, they will stand back up because their vacuoles have filled back up. What process allows their vacuoles to fill back up with water?

• active transport

• photosynthesis

• osmosis

• cellular respiration

Diffusion is defined as ---

• particles moving from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration

• a process of moving something across a cell membrane that requires energy

• diffusion of water across a semipermeable membrane

The word "selectively permeable" means ---

• allows only certain substances to pass through

• not allowing anything to pass through

• allowing all substances to pass through

• none of the answers are correct
