Answer:

\huge \bold\red { Answer ↝}

In osmosis, net flow of solvent across the semipermeable membrane is from solvent to solution. The flow can be reversed by applying pressure greater than osmotic pressure on the solution.

This is called reverse osmosis. It is used for desalination of sea water.

Explanation:

Osmosis is the movement of a solvent across a semipermeable membrane toward a higher concentration of solute (lower concentration of solvent). In biological systems, the solvent is typically water, but osmosis can occur in other liquids, supercritical liquids, and even gases.
