1. plural of exosmosis; the flow of a liquid outward through a semipermeable membrane, especially from a region of lower solute concentration to higher concentration.
Usage: technical; biology; chemistry

Examples

• The exosmoses observed in the laboratory demonstrated how water moves across cell membranes.
• Multiple exosmoses occurred simultaneously in the experimental setup with different salt concentrations.
• Understanding exosmoses is essential for studying plant physiology and osmotic pressure.
• The rate of exosmoses increased when the external solution became more concentrated.
• Biologists measured the exosmoses to determine the osmotic potential of the cells.
