What factors determine the rate of osmosis?
Concentration gradient is key—bigger differences make water move faster. Temperature and membrane permeability also play big roles.

From personal experience in my biology lab, I found that temperature impacts the speed of osmosis significantly. Warmer temps make things go quicker!
Temperature and concentration gradient, hands down. Simple but effective!
It's all about the concentration gradient and the membrane's permeability. Higher difference and more permeable membrane means faster osmosis.
The rate of osmosis is mainly determined by the concentration gradient, temperature, and the permeability of the membrane. So crank up the solute difference and watch the water flow!
