Osmosis

• diffusion of water molecules through a semi-permeable mebrane from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration

• the diffusion of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration

• diffusion of water molecules through a semi-permeable membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration

• the diffusion of particles from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration

Where will the water go?

• Into the cell

• Out of the cell

• Equally in & out - it's isotonic

• There is no water
