Please tell whether the statements are true or false from i to vi

Dear student,
i.
Diffusion is the movement of molecules from a region of high concentration to a lower concentration.
Therefore, the statement is false.

ii.
Osmosis is an example of diffusion.
Therefore, the statement is true.
iii.
Osmosis is unidirectional as it transport water molecules from higher concentration to lower concentration through a semipermeable membrane.
Therefore, the statement is true.
iv.
Exosmosis causes outward diffusion, it can only shrink the cell.
Therefore, the statement is false.

v.
The semipermeable membrane only allows the movement of a solvent through it, but not of solute molecules.
Therefore, the statement is true.

vi.
If the external pressure is applied to the dilute solution, more water molecules will move with a faster rate across the membrane towards a concentrated solution.
Therefore, the statement is false.

Regards
