This is called osmosis, which is the movement of water from a low solute concentration to a high solute concentration.

Which term refers to the diffusion of water throughout a membrane?

Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a membrane (semipermeable) membrane. Water always moves from a high concentration of water to a low concentration of water.


What is the diffusion of water through the cell membrane is called?

The diffusion of water through the cell membrane is called osmosis. Osmosis occurs when water molecules move across a semi-permeable membrane from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration in order to equalize the concentration on both sides of the membrane.


What is the diffusion of water through a cell membrane known as?

The diffusion of water through a cell membrane is known as osmosis. In osmosis, water molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration to balance the concentration of solutes on both sides of the membrane.


What is the name of the diffusion of water?

Osmosis. Osmosis is not the same as diffusion of water. Diffusion of water is just diffusion like with any other substance: the particles spreading, making a homogeneous distribution. Osmosis involves a semipermeabel membrane, where water goes from low solvent concentration to high solvent concentration.


What term refers to diffusion of water molecules through a selectively preamble membrane?

Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules through a semi-permeable membrane to equalise osmotic pressure.


How is water transported across the membrane?

Water is transported by a passive transport called osmosis. Osmosis is diffusion of water across the membrane.
