In our lab: Which carrot lost mass? Why?

Saltwater - there was a lower concentration of water outside the cell so water left.

What direction do molecules flow through a concentration gradient?

From high to low concentration.

What's the difference between osmosis and diffusion?

Osmosis is specifically the diffusion of water molecules. Any molecule can diffuse from high to low concentration.
