What are some examples of biological activities in which osmosis plays important role?..

Answer / Shah Alam

Osmosis plays a crucial role in several biological processes. For instance, it helps maintain the balance of water and solutes within and outside cells, regulates fluid movements across membranes, and aids in nutrient absorption by intestinal epithelial cells. Additionally, osmosis is involved in plant turgor pressure and in the movement of substances across semipermeable membranes such as the renal tubules during urine formation.
