Question

Explain the process of osmosis in detail​

Answer 1

Osmosis is the spontaneous net movement of solvent molecules through a selectively permeable membrane into a region of higher solute concentration, in the direction that tends to equalize the solute concentrations on the two sides.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Osmosis is the movement of water through a semi-permeable membrane from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration, tending to equalise the concentrations of the water.[1] Osmosis is passive transport, meaning it does not require energy to be applied. What causes osmotic pressure is different concentrations of solutes on the two sides of the membrane.
