Detailed explanation-1: -Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules across a semipermeable membrane from an area of lower concentration solution (i.e., higher concentration of water) to an area of higher concentration solution (i.e., lower concentration of water). Water moves into and out of cells by osmosis.
Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -In physiology, osmosis (Greek for push) is the net movement of water across a semipermeable membrane. Across this membrane, water will tend to move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
