... active transport', which requires a specialised carrier molecule, as well as a source of energy. Osmosis Osmosis is a special type of diffusion. It is the movement of water molecules from a weak solution to a strong solution. Osmosis involves water diffusing through a semi-permeable membrane. This process will continue on until the solutions on either side of the membrane are of equal concentration. If the internal ... the cell surroundings have a greater concentration, then water disperses from the cell. When unequal solute concentrations in aqueous solutions are on either side of semi...
