Detailed explanation-1: -Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules across a semipermeable membrane from an area of lower solute concentration (i.e., higher concentration of water) to an area of higher solute concentration (i.e., lower concentration of water) till equilibrium is reached.

Detailed explanation-2: -Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules, from a region where they are in higher concentration, to a region where they are in lower concentration, through a partially permeable membrane.

Detailed explanation-3: -In biology, osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a solution with a high concentration of water molecules to a solution with a lower concentration of water molecules, through a cell’s partially permeable membrane.

Detailed explanation-4: -Osmosis is the movement of water across a semi-permeable membrane from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration. Osmosis helps regulate the flow of water in and out of cells, which is crucial to their function.

Detailed explanation-5: -Osmosis refers to the movement of fluid across a membrane in response to differing concentrations of solutes on the two sides of the membrane.
