Osmosis

In simple words, osmosis is the slow, gradual movement of a liquid through a membrane. But there are nuances to this process. For instance, there has to be an imbalance in the distribution of solute in the liquid on either side of the membrane, which has to be semipermeable. The liquid in the region with a lower solute concentration moves to the region with a higher concentration, thereby displacing the solution in the process. The objective is to equalize the concentration of molecules on both sides of the membrane; the displacement of liquid can be viewed as a byproduct of this equalization. Since there is no energy required to carry osmosis, it is considered a passive process.

Cellular membranes are self-sealing—if they are punctured or disrupted mechanically, they quickly and automatically reseal. What properties ofmembranes are responsible for this important feature?
Fibroblasts are motile cells that “creep” about in the connective tissue of the body where they play a number of roles, including secretion of the extracellular matrix and initiating certain wound healing events. These cells do not usually have microvilli nor do they express the actin-binding protein villin; both of these properties are characteristic of certain epithelial cells, such as those lining the intestine and kidneys. Remarkably enough, however, if one artificially engineers fibroblast cells to produce the villin protein, microvilli form on the fibroblasts. Given what you know about the function of villin, why might this striking change in cell morphology occur?
