It's called osmosis. The water will travel across the membrane to equal out concentrations so they are both the same. This is because water is a small molecule, able to move through the membrane.
Think of it this way. If there were no membrane then the dissolved substance would diffuse throughout the mixture. If you put a membrane there then the same idea works but this time it is only the water that can move. So the water moves through the membrane until the same concentration of water molecules appear on each side.

Water passes through a cell membrane by?
What_is_the_passage_of_water_through_cell_membranes_calledPassage of water through cell membranes occurs through osmosis.
What is the channel in the nuclear membrane through which the RNA passes?
The channel in the nuclear membrane through which RNA passes is called the nuclear pore complex. It allows for the transport of RNA molecules between the nucleus and the cytoplasm.
Can water move through the middle of a membrane?
Yes, water can move through the middle of a membrane through a process called osmosis.
Osmosis can only occur if water travels through the what?
Osmosis can only occur if water travels through the semi-permeable membrane. This will cause water to cross the lipid bilayer.
What is a osmosis?
Osmosis is the movement of a solvent (usually water) through a semi-permeable membrane from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration. This process helps maintain balance in cells and tissues by regulating the flow of water and dissolved substances.
What is a type of diffusion in which water passes through a cell membrane?
Osmosis

During osmosis what passes through a cell membrane?
Water, from high to low concentration.
What is it called when Water passes through the cell membrane from a high concentrated area to a less concentrated area?
Osmosis
What passes through a cells membrane?
stuff liek water and such that the cell needs to survive. the membrane is selective about what it allows in and out. bad stuff hardly ever makes it in.
What is the substances that passes through a cell?
cell membrane
Water spreading through a membrane with a change in cell size is an example of what?
Water molecules spreading through a membrane with a change in cell size is an example of osmosis. In osmosis fluid passes both in and out of the semipermeable membrane in osmosis, but usually there's a net flow in one direction.
Water passes quickly through cell membranes because?
The cell membrane has two phospholipids, with hydrophilic (water-loving) heads facing the outside while the hydrophobic tails point in. Water cannot pass through because of this characteristic. The hydrophilic "heads" attract water since they are polar, but the hydrophobic "tails" are non polar and reject water. H20 passes by means of a channel protein.
Where does oxygen go after it passes through the the cell membrane?
The Mitochondria
What is the treatment that passes water through a porous substance and purified?
The treatment is called filtration, where water passes through a porous substance like sand, charcoal, or a membrane to remove impurities and particles. This process helps to purify the water by physically trapping contaminants and producing cleaner water for consumption.
What is the channel in the nuclear membrane through which the RNA passes?
The channel in the nuclear membrane through which RNA passes is called the nuclear pore complex. It allows for the transport of RNA molecules between the nucleus and the cytoplasm.
The process by which simple sugar passes through a membrane is called?
diffusion
