  • Osmosis in Plant Cells: Understanding the Process & Cell Membrane's Role
    The term "osmosis" doesn't refer to a specific organelle in a plant cell.

    Osmosis is a process, not an organelle. It's the movement of water molecules across a semi-permeable membrane from an area of high water concentration to an area of low water concentration.

    While osmosis occurs in plant cells, it's primarily facilitated by the cell membrane (also called the plasma membrane). This membrane acts as a barrier, controlling what enters and exits the cell, including water.
