There is definitely a strong relation between osmosis pressure and water activity. Osmosis is the movement of water from high pressure to low pressure.

Is there more pressure used in Osmosis or reverse Osmosis?
Water or liquid move naturally from lower concentration to higher concentration. The drive force is called osmotic pressure. No additional pressure need to drive osmosis process. Reverse osmosis, is apply pressure to fight against osmotic pressure. It do need additional pressure to reverse the osmosis process. It is comparing a zero additional pressure with any positive additional pressure thus of cause reverse osmosis require more pressure.
What drives exchange of fluids between tissues and the blood?
concentration gradients, osmosis, and hydrostatic pressure
How does tonicity relate to osmosis?
Tonicity refers to the measure of the effective osmotic pressure gradient between two solutions. The higher the difference in the tonicity between the two solutions, the more osmosis transpires.
Is a colligative property of solutions in which the pressure created by osmosis equals the pressure required to prevent osmosis.?
distillation

distillation
What is the relationship between osmosis and turgor pressure?
Water enters into plants by Osmosis and water causes turgor pressure Tugor definition= the state of turgidity and resulting rigidity of cells (or tissues), typically due to the absorption of fluid.
What's the difference between isotonicity and isoosmosis?
Tonicity is measure of the effective of osmotic pressure. Osmosis is the minimum pressure which needs to be applied to a solution.
The primary means of water movement between fluid compartments is?
The movement of water and electrolytes is primarily regulated between fluid compartments by hydrostatic pressure and osmotic pressure.
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.
What are cells formed of?
Enzyme activity, osmosis, and diffusion
What pressure results from osmosis?
osmotic
