Detailed explanation-2: -Water moves across cell membranes by diffusion, in a process known as osmosis. Osmosis refers specifically to the movement of water across a semipermeable membrane, with the solvent (water, for example) moving from an area of low solute (dissolved material) concentration to an area of high solute concentration.

Detailed explanation-3: -Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a higher water concentration area to the area of less water concentration through a semipermeable membrane.

Detailed explanation-4: -In osmosis, water moves from areas of low concentration of solute to areas of high concentration of solute.

Detailed explanation-5: -Osmosis is the movement of water from higher water concentration to lower water concentration through a semi-permeable membrane.
