Question

Give any two examples of semi permeable membrane used in osmosis

Answer 1

$\huge\text{\sf Osmosis:}$

$\huge{→}$Osmosis is defined as the diffusion of solvent (like water ) from the Solution of lower concentration (Hypotonic) to the solution of higher concentration (Hypertonic) when both are separated by a semi-permeable membrane .

$\huge{→}$The net direction and rate of Osmosis depends on both the Pressure and concentration gradient.

$\huge\text{\sf Example\:of\: Semi-permeable\: Membrane:}$

• Cell membrane .

• Blood brain barrier.

• Basement membrane of glomerulus of kidney.
