Osmosis |
The diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration |
|
|
How much energy does osmosis require ? |
None since water molecules are diffusing without energy. This is an example of passive transport |
|
|
Where do water molecules move to? |
Like usual diffusion it follows dynamic equailibrium but also goes to an area of the most non water molecules |
