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.
