Solution

(ii) Electroosmosis takes place.

(iii) Dispersion medium begins to move.

Explanation:

When electrophoresis, i.e, movement of particles is prevented by some suitable means, it is observed that the dispersion medium begins to move in an electric field. This phenomenon is termed electroosmosis.
