    In the given question, out of the four options

    Option C. Facilitated diffusion

    is correct.

    Explanation:

    In any hypertonic solution, flow of water is through the transporting channels known as 'aquaporins' which are embedded in the plasma membrane of the cell. Such type of transport is passive transport or passive movement of ions or molecules through a particular transmembrane protein integrated in it. This type of transport can also be referred to as passive mediated transport or commonly known as facilitated diffusion.
