Root System Water Intake for Plants. Plant roots function as a semipermeable membrane, allowing water to infiltrate the roots.

Examples of how osmosis move substances in living organisms :

  • The absorption of water from the soil is due to osmosis. The plant roots have a higher concentration than the soil, therefore, the water flows into the roots.
  • The guard cells of the plants are also affected by osmosis. When the plant cells are filled with water, the guard cells swell up and the stomata open.
  • If a freshwater or saltwater fish is placed in the water with different salt concentrations, the fish dies due to the entry or exit of water in the cells of the fish.
