The water is not moving equilibrium.
Diffusion
A concentration gradient of a substance drives the movement of that substance from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. The steeper the concentration gradient, the faster the movement of the substance, requiring less energy to transport it. If the concentration on both sides of the gradient is equal, there is no net movement of the substance.
Substances such as pyruvate, fatty acids, and amino acids have a net movement into the mitochondria for further processing through metabolic pathways like the citric acid cycle and beta-oxidation to generate energy in the form of ATP. NADH and FADH2, which are electron carriers, also feed into the electron transport chain within the mitochondria for ATP production through oxidative phosphorylation.
This process is called diffusion. If the substance moving is water, it is called osmosis.

DIFFUSION DIFFUSION
ATP is a substance that stores energy released by mitochondria.
A concentration gradient ceases to exist when there is an equal distribution of a substance across a space or membrane. This equal distribution results in no net movement of the substance from one area to another, causing the concentration gradient to reach equilibrium.

When there is no difference in concentration of a substance from one area to another, we refer to this as equilibrium. At equilibrium, there is an equal distribution of the substance, and there is no net movement of the substance in any particular direction.
Active transport or facilitated diffusion could result in the net movement of a substance into a cell if it is more concentrated inside the cell than in the surroundings. In active transport, energy is required to move the substance against its concentration gradient. In facilitated diffusion, specific carrier proteins help the substance move into the cell down its concentration gradient.
