Water moves by osmosis, through a semipermeable membrane, from a HIGHER concentration of water to a LOWER concentration of water. The process is really trying to make the amount of water on each side to be equal.
Because osmosis is the movement of water molecules from where they are in high concentration to where they are in low concentration.

osmosis is affected by the concentration gradient the lower the concentration gradient the faster the speed of osmosis
There has to be a difference in concentration in order for diffusion and osmosis to occur.

Movement of water is a passive process called osmosis. It always moves from an area of higher concentration of water to a lower concentration of water.
The reason it doesn't require energy is because the water is just flowing with the concentration gradient. it doesn't need energy for the same reason there is wind. the air is working to the concentration of the air.

No because osmosis is the diffusion of water where water with high concentration moves to water with low concentration, therefore it has nothing to do with protein.
In Osmosis, water moves from the region of high water concentration through a semi permeable membrane to a region of low water concentration. Osmosis happens because of diffence in concentration of water different regions.

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.
As per Definition of osmosis: "Osmosis is the passage of water from the region of high water concentration through a semi permeable membrane to a region of low water concentration". Thus, Osmosis do have an area of high and low concentration of water solutions.
Osmosis is the passive movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration across a partially permeable membrane. reverse osmosis is the opposite?
