If the membrane did not allow water or solute particles to pass through it, essential processes like nutrient absorption and waste removal would be disrupted, leading to cell dysfunction and potentially cell death.
Diffusion of fluid through a semipermeable membrane from a solution with a low solute concentration to a solution with a higher solute concentration until there is an equal concentration of fluid on both sides of the membrane
Osmosis can only occur if water travels through a semi-permeable membrane. This membrane allows water molecules to pass through but restricts the movement of solute particles. Osmosis is the process of water moving from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration to equalize the concentration on both sides of the membrane.
An impermeable solute is a substance that cannot pass through a semipermeable membrane, such as a cell membrane. This means that the solute is unable to diffuse or move across the membrane and remains on one side of the membrane.
It gets dissolved in something else.
Osmosis is dependent on the concentration gradient of solute particles across a semipermeable membrane. Water moves from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration to equalize the solutions on both sides of the membrane.
equalize the concentration on both sides of the membrane through passive diffusion.
The cell wouldn't diffuse.
the particles of the solute would be spread to the solvent particles.

Osmosis is controlled by the permeability of the osmotic membrane and the equilibrium of the solutions on either side of the membrane. If the solutions have unequal concentrations or osmotic pressures, and the molecules in the solution can pass through the membrane, then the solutions will mix until both sides have equal concentrations. If the membrane is impermeable, then nothing will happen.
It gets dissolved in something else.
Osmosis is driven by a concentration gradient, where solvent molecules move from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration through a semi-permeable membrane. This process seeks to equalize the concentration of solute particles on both sides of the membrane, ultimately balancing the solution.
Facilitated diffusion is an example of passive transport, while solute pumping is an example of active transport. This means that facilitated diffusion does not require the use of energy, while solute pumping does. Sometimes, certain particles are either too big or lipid insoulble to pass through the cell membrane. Therefore, they need a protein carrier which acts like a tunnel. This allows these particles to pass through the cell membrane. However, solute pumping is when amino acids, some sugars, and ions are transported b solute pumps. Also, ATP energizes during solute pumping. Facilitated diffusion is an example of passive transport, while solute pumping is an example of active transport.

In osmosis, water molecules move through a semipermeable membrane from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration, in order to equalize the solute concentration on both sides of the membrane.
