Osmosis is the diffusion of a solvent (usually water molecules) through a semipermeable membrane from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration, or conversely from an area of higher water potential to an area of lower water potential.
Water will tend to flow from a hypotonic solution (low concentration of dissolved substances) into a hypertonic solution (higher concentration of dissolved substances).
Water will in essence push or thrust (Greek osmos,push,thrust) from a place of low concentration of water to that of a high concentration of water as it requires it. The membrane allows only water and some select substances to pass through.
