Answer:
Osmosis (/ɒzˈmoʊ. sɪs/) is the spontaneous net movement of solvent molecules through a selectively permeable membrane into a region of higher solute concentration, in the direction that tends to equalize the solute concentrations on the two sides.

- Osmosis is the movement of a solvent across a semipermeable membrane toward a higher concentration of solute (lower concentration of solvent).When a cell is submerged in water, the water molecules pass through the cell membrane from an area of low solute concentration to high solute concentration.
