Osmosis is of great importance in biological processes where the solvent is water. The transport of water and other molecules across biological membranes is essential to many processes in living organisms. The energy which drives the process is usually discussed in terms of osmotic pressure. It shows the movement of water from a high water concentration to a low water concentration through a partially permeable membrane. In the following osmosis diagrams, you’ll see how osmosis happens in cells. Take a look at the following illustration diagrams!

Osmosis takes place in all cells. The cell membrane is partially permeable. When a cell is submerged in water, the water molecules pass through the cell membrane from an area of low solute concentration to high solute concentration. For example, if the cell is submerged in saltwater, water molecules move out of the cell. If a cell is submerged in freshwater, water molecules move into the cell. Osmosis in red blood cells happen if a red blood cell is placed in water, water enters the cell by osmosis.
