What happens in osmosis

Answer 1

Osmosis is a special case of diffusion. Water, like other substances, moves from an area of higher concentration to one of lower concentration. ... In this example, the solute cannot diffuse through the membrane, but the water can. Water has a concentration gradient in this system.!!!!...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
