Osmosis is the passive movement of water molecules across a partially permeable membrane from high to low water concentration, becoming more diluted if a solute is present.
Definição de osmose: Osmose é o movimento passivo de moléculas de água através de uma membrana parcialmente permeável de uma área de alta concentração de água para uma área de baixa concentração de água. Se estiver numa solução com soluto, torna-se mais diluída.
