Osmosis is the movement of a liquid through a membrane when the movement is caused by a difference in the concentration of the liquid on either side of the membrane. When osmosis happens liquid will move from the side of the membrane with the higher concentration of the liquid to the side of the membrane with the lower concentration. An important example of osmosis is water moving in to and out of cells.

ResponderEliminarThere is named a semipermeable membrane the one that contains pores, as any filter, of molecular size. The size of the pores is so minuscule that it(he,she) stops to spend(pass) the small molecules but not the big ones (normally of the size of microns). For example, it(he,she) stops to spend(pass) the water molecules that are small, but not those of sugar, which are bigger
