Caffeine is classified as a diuretic, which means that it increases urine output.
The primary reason why urine increases urination is that it increases golmerular blood pressure,
or blood pressure within capillaries in kidneys. This, in turn, increases blood filtration,
resulting in an increase in urine.
Another reason why caffeine is a diuretic is that it prevents sodium ion resorption--or,
increase in sodium ion blood serum levels--which increases urination, but decreases water filtration.
This is because water filters from the blood through the kidney and into the
bladder during sodium ion resorption. Given that caffeine prevents the resorption process,
water filtration is likewise inhibited.

What are the factors that affect the rate of osmosis?

Factors that affect the rate of osmosis include the concentration gradient between the solutions, the surface area of the membrane through which osmosis is occurring, the thickness of the membrane, and the temperature of the solutions. Additionally, the presence of solutes that can affect the water potential of the solutions will also impact the rate of osmosis.
