Imbibition involves(a)Diffusion of water(b)Movement of water into imbibant through capillarity (c)Movement of water into imbibant through diffusion as well as capillary action(d)Adsorption of water
Imbibition primarily involves the movement of water into an imbibant substance through capillarity, so the correct option is (b) Movement of water into imbibant through capillarity. This process occurs when a solid substance, typically a dry porous material like a sponge or a dry seed, absorbs water due to the capillary action. While diffusion may also play a role, it's not the primary mechanism in imbibition.
