Whereas diffusion transports material across membranes and within cells, osmosis transports only water across a membrane and the membrane limits the diffusion of solutes in the water. Osmosis is a special case of diffusion.
Oct 11, 2023 · Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Water moves into and out of cells by osmosis.
For an organism to function, substances must move into and out of cells. Three processes contribute to this movement – diffusion, osmosis and active transport. Part of Combined Science Building...
Passive Transport: Osmosis. Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a semipermeable membrane according to the concentration gradient of water across the membrane. Whereas diffusion transports material across membranes and within cells, osmosis transports only water across a membrane and the membrane limits the diffusion of solutes in the water.

Oct 31, 2023 · Semipermeable membranes, also termed selectively permeable membranes or partially permeable membranes, allow certain molecules or ions to pass through by diffusion. While diffusion transports materials across membranes and within cells, osmosis transports only water across a membrane.
