Question

what is osmosis explain in brief​

Answer 1

Answer:

Osmosis is the movement of solvent from a region of lower solute concentration to a region of higher solute concentration through a semi-permeable membrane.

Osmosis is of two types:

Endosmosis– When a substance is placed in a hypotonic solution, the solvent molecules move inside the cell and the cell becomes turgid or undergoes deplasmolysis. This is known as endosmosis.

Exosmosis– When a substance is placed in a hypertonic solution, the solvent molecules move outside the cell and the cell becomes flaccid or undergoes plasmolysis. This is known as exosmosis.
