Enumerate the importance of osmosis in the life of the plants.

Osmosis:

The transport of water molecules from the region of higher concentration to the region of lower concentration through a semipermeable membrane is called osmosis.

Importance of osmosis in the life of plants:

1. Osmosis helps in retaining the turgidity of the cell.
2. It plays an important role in the movement of stomata during transpiration.
3. The opening and closing of stomata are maintained by osmosis.
4. It helps in the movement of liquid through a biological membrane.
5. It plays a vital role in the growth of radicle and plumule at the time of germination of seeds.
