Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Osmosis is a passive transport process during which water moves from areas where solutes are less concentrated to areas where they are more concentrated.
Detailed explanation-2: -Introduction. In physiology, osmosis (Greek for push) is the net movement of water across a semipermeable membrane.[1][2] Across this membrane, water will tend to move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
Detailed explanation-3: -Osmosis is a movement of solvent particles or water from lower solute concentration to higher solute concentration through the semipermeable membrane. This process does not require energy. This requires a concentration gradient.
