First, it helps cells move important materials into and out the cell. Important nutrients and waster dissolved in the water move in and out of the cell through osmosis. Plants absorb water through its roots and move thewater through out by osmosis. Osmosis helps the stomata in plants open and close.

Yes it is useful for plants

because the the leaves of plants stomatal pore use guard cells and absorb the water into it to open the guard cells and then released the water to close it.

The movement of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane is called osmosis.

Importance of osmosis in daily life -

  1. Absorption of water by plant roots.
  2. It is used for preservation of food items. For ex, pickles.
  3. Unicellular freshwater organisms and most plant cells tend to gain water through osmosis.

Yes it is useful for plants, as it helps in transportation of water across the different parts with the help of phloem.

A few more examples of osmosis in daily life could be -

i. Puffing up or swelling of raisins and apricots.

ii. Pruning of fingers when kept in water for a while.

Hope that helps!
