Question

Osmosis is a special kind of diffusion, in which water diffuses across the cell membrane. The rate and direction of osmosis depends upon both

Answer 1

Osmosis:

• Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a region of high water potential to a region of lower water potential across a semipermeable membrane.
• Water moves from its higher concentration to its lower concentration through a semipermeable membrane.
• In other words it moves along the concentration gradient and pressure gradient.

Final answer:Concentration gradient and pressure gradient.
