Question

Meaning of osmosis??????? Answer in 100 words

Answer 1

osmosis

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

Answer:

1: movement of a solvent (such as water) through a semipermeable membrane (as of a living cell) into a solution of higher solute concentration that tends to equalize the concentrations of solute on the two sides of the membrane

2: a process of absorption or diffusion (see DIFFUSION sense 3a) suggestive of the flow of osmotic action

especially : a usually effortless often unconscious assimilation (see ASSIMILATION sense 4)
