Question

Explain the process of osmosis through an example.

​

Answer 1

Answer:

the process by which water moves from a higher concentration to a lower concentration thru a semi permiable membrane is osmosis

our hand shrinks if we wash our hand in soap for a long time because water concentration is higher in our hands than outside medium

Answer 2

The process of movement of water from higher concentration to lower concentration through plasma membrane is called osmosis.

For ex.

• if an object is kept in hypertonic solution the cell loses water and shrinks if cell is kept in hypotonic solution the cell swells up.
