This is referred to as OSMOSIS. When you say "solution of lower concentration" this implies the solute concentration is low, thus water concentration is high. So, osmosis is movement of water from a high concentration of water, to a lower concentration of water, just to be clear.

What are the materials required for osmosis?
Osmosis occurs when there are two solutions of different concentration strength separated by a semipermeable membrane. The membrane must allow water to cross, but not the solutes. Water will then move from the solution of lower concentration strength across the membrane to the solution of higher concentration strength. This movement of water is called osmosis.
Osmosis is the movement of?
Osmosis is the movement of water through a membrane. A solvent, which is often water, from a higher water concentration to a lower water concentration across a selectively-permeable membrane. =) [my answer is better. jk]
How do fluid materials transport through membrane osmosis osmosis?
Osmosis is the movement of water across a selectively permeable membrane from where it is in high concentration to where it is in low concentration.
Define osmosis and diffusion?
Osmosis is the random movement of particles across (through) a partially permeable membrane along a concentration gradient from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Diffusion is the random movement of particles in a solution from an area of high concentration to low concentration. Eventually the particles will be uniformly and randomly distributed.
. Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane in which water moves from a solution containing a low concentration of solute to what kind of solution?
a solution containing a high concentration of solute
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 is the process that moves particles from areas of higher concentration?
The answer is is OSMOSIS the spontaneous net movement of water across a membrane from a region of low concentration to a solution with a high concentration, down a solute concentration gradient.
What are the requirements for materials?
Osmosis occurs when there are two solutions of different concentration strength separated by a semipermeable membrane. The membrane must allow water to cross, but not the solutes. Water will then move from the solution of lower concentration strength across the membrane to the solution of higher concentration strength. This movement of water is called osmosis.
Is movement of water from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration across a?
across semipermeable membrane? That is osmosis, the net movement of water.

How do particles move from areas from lower concentration to areas of higher concentration?
The answer is is OSMOSIS the spontaneous net movement of water across a membrane from a region of low concentration to a solution with a high concentration, down a solute concentration gradient.
What is facilitated diffusion across the phospholipid membrane?
Facilitated diffusion is the movement a substance from high concentration to low concentration across a membrane through a transporter protein or channel
When will water move acroos a membrane?
There will be a net movement of water across a selectively permeable membrane from where the water is in high concentration to where it is in low concentration.
Net movement of water across a cell membrane occurs?
from a hypotonic solution to a hypertonic solution.

How do fluid materials transport through membrane osmosis osmosis?
Osmosis is the movement of water across a selectively permeable membrane from where it is in high concentration to where it is in low concentration.
Which term describes the movement of water molecules into and out of the cell?
Osmosis is the movement of water particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration, across a semi-permeable membrane.
