I think the word you're looking for is osmosis. Water with different ionic or molecular concentrations will move toward equilibrium.
Diffusion and osmosis differ because diffusion is the process by which molecules spread out, or move from areas with high concentration to low concentration, and osmosis is the diffusion of water. Osmosis is a type of diffusion relating to water. It is usually used to describe the diffusion of water across a membrane (such as the cell membrane). Osmosis is also defined as the flow of solvent from a region of higher pressure toward a region of low pressure.
becuase of diffusion
Diffusion, in general. If it's applying to water it's called Osmosis.
The bulk flow of filtrate is a type of diffusion. Diffusion is a broad category of distribution of a substance within another substance. Diffusion can be specific or general in location and rate of flow.
The term that refers to the spread of ideas, innovations, inventions, and patterns of behavior is "cultural diffusion." This process occurs when cultural items, such as beliefs, practices, and technologies, are transmitted from one society or social group to another. Cultural diffusion can happen through various means, including trade, migration, and communication, leading to the exchange and blending of cultures.
osmosis
Osmosis is the term that describes the diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane. It involves the movement of water molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
Diffusion is the transport of materials from a high concentration to an area of low concentration across a gradient.Osmosis is the term used for the diffusion of water.
Cultural diffusion
Diffusion is to spread something more widely. Water entering in to the confines of a stream is not being spread widely. So I don't think that diffusion is the correct term.
cultural diffusion
Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules through a semi-permeable membrane to equalise osmotic pressure.
Osmosis is the special form of diffusion that applies only to water. It is the movement of water molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration across a semipermeable membrane.
diffusion
The term for the diffusion of water across a semipermeable membrane is osmosis. Osmosis is when the molecules of a solvent move from a less concentrated solution to a more concentrated one. This equalizes the concentrations on each side of the member.
Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules down a concentration gradient through a semi-permeable membrane
Diffusion, a form of passive transport, is the movement of molecules from an area of greater concentration to an area of lower concentration. Osmosis is a special case involvement the movement of water from an area of higher concentration of water molecules to an area of lower concentration of water molecules. It takes place in all three states of matter-Solids, liquids and gases.
