Answer:

The question is not clear so let me explain about the diffusion of water.

Step-by-step explanation:

Osmosis can be described as the diffusion of water molecules from an area of lower solute to an area of higher solute. In osmosis the molecules of water move along a concentration gradient hence, it is a passive transport. No energy is required for this process to occur.

For example, consider a solution which has a cell which is high in solutes. The water will move into the cell by osmosis and the solutes will move out of the cell.
