Simple difference of diffusion and osmosis?

Question

Answer

Diffusion - movement of substance from their region of higher concentration to lower but osmosis - movement of solvent from the region of their higher concentration to lower through semi/ selective permeable membrane

Answer

The difference between diffusion and osmosis is that the passage of water from a region of high water concentration through a semi permeable membrane to a region of low water concentration is called osmosis.The spontaneous movement of a substance from a region of its high concentration to the region where its concentration is low,is called diffusion.if it is not OK I can explained it in a simple way?

Answer

Diffusion is the movement of ions, atoms, or molecule of solutes ,liquids or gases from the region of their higher concentration to the region of their lower concentrationOsmosis is just opposite

Answer

In osmosis you see the movement of solvent particles from high concentration of solute to low concentrations of solute?

Answer

Diffusion is the movement of  molecules or ions from a higher concentration to a lower concentration down a concentration gradient.Osmosis is a special kind of diffusion of water molecules from a higher concentration to a lower concentration.?

Answer

Diffusion takes place in gases or it is a term related to the movement of gases and osmosis takes place in water or it is a term related to movement of water?

Answer

Osmosis- it is the net spontaneous movement of solvent molecules through semipermeable membrane from higher concentration to lower concentration.Diffusion- it is the movement of molecules from higher to lower concentration?

Answer

Diffusion means movement of any substance from its high concentration to low concentration and osmosis is type of diffusion when neutral solute or water move from high concentration to low concentration?
