Osmosis if unopposed would cause outside water to pass through the cell membrane, building up pressure until the cell burst. To prevent this the cell has an active pumping system of protein lined pores that continuously expel excess water, keeping internal pressure constant.
The diffusion of water through a cell membrane is called osmosis.
Alcohol moves across the cell membrane by means of osmosis.
The vacuole is the organelle in a plant cell that is involved in osmosis. It helps maintain turgor pressure in the cell by regulating the movement of water molecules in and out of the cell through osmosis.

Osmosis the transfer of water through the cell. So when in osmosis the cell needs more water.
diffusion and osmosis limit the size of a cell by how fast is can move
OSMOSIS More specifically: Endosmosis is the movement of water into a cell Exosmosis is the movement of water out of a cell
Osmosis causes water to move across a semi-permeable membrane from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration. In plant tissues, osmosis helps maintain turgor pressure, allowing the plant to remain upright. In animal tissues, osmosis is crucial for maintaining proper hydration levels and regulating cell volume. However, excessive osmosis can lead to cell damage or bursting.
osmosis involves water passing in and out of the cell

Through the process of Osmosis and, alternately, reverse Osmosis.
Osmosis occurs in the cell membrane of a cell. It is the movement of water across the cell membrane, which controls the balance of water inside and outside of the cell.
