'Osmosis' is a term used to describe the passage of water from a region of high water concentration through a semi-permeable membrane to a region of low water concentration. This is basically done to re establish the equilibrium

Osmosis is the way water moves into a cell. The water is forced into the pores of the cell by pressure. This takes no energy, so it is called "Passive Transport." This may be the other way around. There may be a higher consentration of water in the cell, and an area of lower consentrationoutside of the cell. Due to pressure, the water will move out of the cell until the consentration is 50% on both sides of the cell, or until the pressure is even.

The water evaporates and gets cared away until it cools and condenses and dose condensation then the water comes back to earth in snow, sleet, hail, and rain thin it continues for a long period of time.

The transfer of a fluid via diffusion or water in osmosis is due to nature's natural tendency to achieve balance. Across a membrane, if there is a higher concentration of water on one side, a natural flow will balance the levels until they are in equilibrium.

Osmosis takes place in every living cell of a plant although osmosis is the primary driver for moving water and disolved minerals into the roothairs from the soil solution.

It makes water (only water) enter through the membrane making sure the cell stays hydrated and not over hydrated.
