When single cell freshwater organism is transferred in salt water it will shrink. For e.x. As in case of amoeba if fresh water amoeba is kept in salt water it contractile vacuole will disappear and this phenomena is called osmoregulation.
the osmosis is special examples of diffussion
Osmosis. Osmosis is the diffusion of WATER specifically. sources: 8th grade living environment (9th grade science)
A cells (living things) are bound by a membrane.
A cell membrane is part of a cell which unless it has died is a living thing. However on its own the membrane is not "alive".
Osmosis is the passage of water from a region of high water concentration through a semi-permeable membrane to a region of low water concentration.
Osmosis is the diffusion of water down it's concentration gradien through a semi-permeable barrier. One can be quite sure that osmosis is occuring in the living neem tree.

No, the plasma membrane is a selectively permeable barrier that regulates the flow of most molecules across the membrane. The plasma membrane allows waste products to exit the cell and nutrients to enter the cell.
in, this is called osmosis. it is a form of passive transport driven by the higher solute concentration inside the cell than outside. it requires no energy to run.out, this is called reverse osmosis. it is a form of active transport driven by higher pressure inside the cell than outside. it requires energy to create and maintain the pressure difference. living cells do not use this, instead they use a form of active transport involving pore pumpsembedded in the membrane to remove excess water and other undesired chemicals from the cell.
Like living things, coacervates contain organic molecules. Coacervates have a membrane-like barrier between them and their surroundings, and osmosis occurs between the inside and the outside of the droplet.
'Osmosis' is a term used to describe the passage of water from a region of high water concentration through a semi-permeable membrane to a region of low water concentration. This is basically done to re establish the equilibrium
osmosis is in living organism .osmosis is a flow of liquid from higher concentration to lower concentration . all living organisms undergoes this process.for eg: due to over heat our body undergoes osmosis process by emitting the sweat outside
Osmosis is a process and not a living being. So, it cannot reproduce.
Yes, Plasma membrane is living .
the osmosis is special examples of diffussion
They deal with osmosis by dividing into two daughter nuclei.
