What is a osmosis?
osmosis is a movement of a fluid that passes through a semipermable membrane
What is a type of diffusion in which water passes through a cell membrane?
Osmosis
Water passes through a cell membrane by?
What_is_the_passage_of_water_through_cell_membranes_calledPassage of water through cell membranes occurs through osmosis.
What is the special type of diffusion where the solute passes through a selectively permeable membrane?
Osmosis
Water spreading through a membrane with a change in cell size is an example of what?
Water molecules spreading through a membrane with a change in cell size is an example of osmosis. In osmosis fluid passes both in and out of the semipermeable membrane in osmosis, but usually there's a net flow in one direction.

What is it called when Water passes through the cell membrane from a high concentrated area to a less concentrated area?
Osmosis
What kind of water treatment is reverse osmosis?
Reverse Osmosis is a process that uses a semi-permeable membrane to purify water. Large impurities remain stuck to the membrane while the pure water passes through.
How does osmosis explain the movement of water across cell membranes?
Osmosis is the movement of water from a solution of high concentration to a solution of lower concentration through a membrane. Water passes through the membrane, diluting the solution of higher concentration on the other side, until both solutions on either side of the membrane have equal concentrations.
What do water passes through a membrane by?
It's called osmosis. The water will travel across the membrane to equal out concentrations so they are both the same. This is because water is a small molecule, able to move through the membrane.Think of it this way. If there were no membrane then the dissolved substance would diffuse throughout the mixture. If you put a membrane there then the same idea works but this time it is only the water that can move. So the water moves through the membrane until the same concentration of water molecules appear on each side.

What is the difference of osmosis and diffusion?
Diffusion is the process by which a substance passes through a membrane passively.Osmosis IS diffusion, just the substance involved is water.
