Water moves into a cell through a semi permeable membrane.

In accordance with my colleagues answer above, you are talking about OSMOSIS! By "pushing or thrusting" its way through..... Osmosis comes from the Greek word Osmos literally meaning "to push or thrust"...... something a Professor once said in an lecture about study "NO! you cannot learn an entire semesters work by placing your notes under your pillow and absorbing the information through OSMOSIS!" meaning the info is not going to penetrate layers of fabric, stuffing, skin and skull to the brain as water does in Osmosis, therefore study is required".....a good way to remember it!
