Answer: Osmosis

Step-by-step explanation:

The water from the higher concentration moves to a lower concentration through a semipermeable is known as osmosis. As the cell membrane is semi permeable it is considered as osmosis.

The water inside the cell is more and the water outside the cell is less so the passive flow of water takes place from the higher concentration to the lower one.

So, the correct option is Osmosis.
