1. plural of endosmosis; the flow of a fluid through a semipermeable membrane from a region of lower solute concentration to a region of higher solute concentration.
Usage: technical; scientific; also called endosmosis (singular)

Examples

• The endosmoses observed in the laboratory demonstrated how water moves across cell membranes.
• Multiple endosmoses occurred simultaneously in the different compartments of the experiment.
• Students studied endosmoses to understand the principles of osmotic pressure.
• The rate of endosmoses depends on the concentration gradient across the membrane.
