What is Understanding Osmosis in Cells about?

Osmosis is the process of water diffusion from a dilute solution to a concentrated solution through a partially permeable membrane. In cells, osmosis can cause animal cells to expand or burst when placed in water, while plant cells become turgid due to their cell walls preventing bursting. Conversely, placing cells in a concentrated solution causes water to leave, leading to shrinkage in both animal and plant cells, with plant cells becoming flaccid.
