Imbibition is a special type of diffusion that takes place when water is adsorbed by solids-colloids causing an increase in volume. Examples include the absorption of water by seeds and dry wood. If there is no pressure due to imbibition, seedlings would not be able to emerge from soil. Imbibition is the process of water absorption through a solid substance, whereas, osmosis is the process of movement of water from higher concentration to lower concentration through a semi-permeable membrane.
