Nope! No osmosis in isotonic solutions since the concentrations are equal. Water's happy where it is.
In an isotonic solution, osmosis doesn't really occur because the solute concentrations on both sides are already balanced. So, no net movement of water!
From personal experience in the lab, we noticed no osmosis in isotonic solutions because the water concentration is already equal. It鈥檚 like a water standoff!
