Check all that apply.

A A solvent can ideally move in both directions through a semipermeable membrane.

B A pressure equal to that of the osmotic pressure will result in reverse osmosis.

C The movement of the solvent particles from a concentrated solution to a dilute solution is known as reverse osmosis.

D Osmosis occurs when the solvent molecules move from a solution of higher solute concentration to a solution of lower solute concentration.

E Solute particles can move in both directions through a semipermeable membrane.
