Diffusion: When small uncharged particles go through the phospholipid bilayer, it cost no ATP
Osmosis: imagine a solution with a bunch of kool aid in it then you place a cell in the glass with only a little kool aid in it the water will rush out of the cell in order to balance out the solution to solute ration.

∙ 8y agoDiffusion:- The molecules of any substance move away from the region of higher concentration to the region of lower concentration. Such movement is random and this process is called diffusion.
Osmosis:- Osmosis is slightly different from diffusion, because in osmosis, some kind of barrier separating two solutions of different concentration exists; while in simple diffusion there is no barrier.

Difusion and osmosis?
Diffusion is basically the movement of any particles form a higher area of concentration to a lower area of concentration. For example, A ink blob placed in water will gradually spread out. Osmosis refers specifically to the Diffusion of water through a semi permeable membrane. (For example, Water moving through the celll membrane) Hope this helps!
What is the word for mixing of particles without stirring?
DIFUSION
Osmosis?
Osmosis is
Is there antonyms for osmosis?
there is no antonym for osmosis.
Who founded osmosis?
No one founded osmosis. Osmosis is just the movement of water across a semipereamble membrane.
Is The difusion of water called osmosis?
yes
How does moss transport the water and nutrients throughout the moss?
osmosis and difusion
Condition in which molecules of a substance are spread evenly throughout a space?
Difusion in air. Osmosis in water.
What is the application of osmosis and difusion to plants and animals?
Plants absorb water from the soil by osmosis and diffusion of water and gases is important for the inetercellular movement in plant and animal cells.
When particles travel from an area of high concenttration to an area of low cincentration it is called?
I'm pretty sure it's Osmosis.

What is substances move into cell without the cell using energy?
The names of these processes are diffusion or osmosis (osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules only). These are both passive and so do not require any energy. However, facilitated diffusion using carrier and channel proteins is also a passive process of moving substances across the cell membrane.
What is the word for mixing of particles without stirring?
DIFUSION
Which process always involves the movement of materials from inside the cell to outisde the cell?
There are several processes that it could be. It could be active transport, passive transport, and also endocytosis.
