Exosmosis occurs when water moves out of a cell, while endosmosis is when water moves into a cell. Examples of exosmosis include the wilting of plants when they lose water or the drying out of Saltwater Fish when placed in freshwater. For endosmosis, consider how a fresh cucumber absorbs water when placed in a salt solution, causing it to swell, or how human red blood cells can burst when placed in pure water due to water influx. These processes illustrate the movement of water across semi-permeable membranes in response to concentration gradients.
