What type of passive transport specifically includes water traveling through a selectively permeable fembrane?

Explanation:

The movement of water across the semipermeable membrane is called osmosis.  

The semipermeable or selectively permeable membrane allows only certain solutes to pass through the membranes and hinders other solutes. The water level is the same, but the concentration of the solutes is different on both sides of the membrane. So this passive transport of the water occurs to balance the concentration of solutes on both sides of the membrane.

1. (1.2kw)x(15/60hours) = .3kwh --> a

2. (5kw)x(90/60hours)x(8cents/kwh) = $0.60 --> d

3. microwave --> 1200 watts = (1.2kw)x(6/60hours) = .12kwh

coffee-maker --> 900 watts = (.9kw)x(10/60hours) = .15kwh

therefore, it requires more energy for the coffee-maker to do the same amount of work.

so the answer is a.
