Explanation:
Molecules from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration i.e. osmosis and diffusion occur.
The cell contains a higher concentration of water in comparison to the its environment.
Further Explanation:
Water molecules from the more concentrated side, will flow into the less concentrated side til they equilibrate- at equilibrium both sides will have the same concentration of solute and water molecules.
In diffusion, small non-charged molecules can move from regions of high concentration to regions of low concentration. This occurs across the phospholipid bilayer, which acts as a semi-permeable membrane into the extracellular fluid or the cytoplasm which are both hydrophilic- this involves the movement of water molecules, gases or other small water-soluble compounds .
In osmosis, molecules of water move across a semi permeable membrane, from regions of high concentration to regions of low concentration until an equilibrium is reached. This always occurs along the concentration gradient within the system.
