Osmosis is a natural process in which water molecules move through a semipermeable membrane from a dilute solution to a more concentrated solution.

It’s as if water molecules “pull” towards the side with more dissolved substances to balance the concentration.

This process is important for fluid balance in our bodies and in plant cells. For example, plants absorb water from the soil through osmosis.

It’s also used in industrial processes, such as water purification. Osmosis is essential for maintaining the proper balance in biological systems.
