What function diffuses water molecules?
Osmosis
What solution causes osmosis?
Hypotonic Solution causes osmosis.
Is osmosis active trasport or passive trasport?
Osmosis is an example of Passive Transport.
What is driven by hydrostatic fluid pressure?
Diffusion, Osmosis
Reverse osmosis occurs when?
a pressure greater than the osmotic pressure is applied in the opposite direction osmosis is occurring.
Comparison of osmosis and reverse osmosis?
Osmosis is a natural process, where a solvent passes through a semipermeable membrane from the region of low solute concentration to the region of high solute concentration. However, reverse osmosis water filtration is a process, which is created artificially using pressure.You can read it it detail at Intec America.
What process is the diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane?
This is the process of osmosis. The membrane allows a solvent (usually water) to move from an area with lower solute concentration to one with greater concentration.

What are 2 examples of osmosis?
Osmosis in plant cells. (water moves into plant cells by osmosis). Osmosis in animal cells. (water also diffuses in and out of animal cells by osmosis). Hope this answers your question.
Who founded osmosis?
No one founded osmosis. Osmosis is just the movement of water across a semipereamble membrane.
What affects osmosis?
osmosis is affected by the concentration gradient the lower the concentration gradient the faster the speed of osmosis
When raisins absorb water is it diffusion or osmosis?
