There are at least six known mechanisms for water flux across biological membranes.
1．Thermal agitation（diffusion）
2．Solvent drag in ion movement in an electrical field（limiting case：electro-smosis）
3．Carriers（hydrated solutes）
4．Gravity
5．Pressure
6．Pinocytosis（vacuole movement）
Another theoretically possible mechanism is thermosmosis.
