Answer:

Arrow no. 4

Explanation:

Water flows from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration, i.e, osmosis.

Dilute solution means it has relatively less solute and more solvent, meaning more amount of water.

And just the opposite for concentrated solution.

So since the dilute solution has more water and concentrated solution has less, and water moves from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration, option 4 is the correct answer.

Answer: 4 (to the left)

Explanation:

Osmosis happens in such a way that the two solutions become similarly concentrated. That means that the water will move from the more dilute solution to the more concentrated one.
