The water molecules move across the cell membrane by travelling along the concentration gradient of the solution (low to high).
Explanation:
Osmosis is the process in which a solvent moves from a solution of low concentration to a solution of higher concentration .
A gradient is followed for this movement and once the concentration of both the solutions(on either sides of the membrane) becomes equal the solvents stop flowing.
Now consider two solutions A and B.
A - is dilute
B - is concentrated
They are both separated by a cell membrane.
Water(solvent) molecules travel from A across the cell membrane / semi permeable membrane to B until the concentrations of A and B become equal.
