Question

define the term
osmosis​

Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

Osmosis is the spontaneous movement of water molecules across a semi permeable membrane from a region of low solute concentration to a solution with a high solute concentration, down a solvent concentration gradient.
