A selectively permeable membrane
The following conditions are required for osmosis to occur: 1) A selectively-permeable membrane 2) Concentration difference
A special type of diffusion through a membrane
diffusion- it is the type of passing of liquid from one part to another. it has semi-permeable membrane to pass the liquid. osmosis-it is the type of passing liquid but it has no membrane.
Osmosis occurs when there are two solutions of different concentration strength separated by a semipermeable membrane. The membrane must allow water to cross, but not the solutes. Water will then move from the solution of lower concentration strength across the membrane to the solution of higher concentration strength. This movement of water is called osmosis.
1 diff. Semi permiable membrane is required in osmosis while it is not required in diffusion. 2 diff. Osmosis cn occur only in liquid medium while diffusion cn occur in all mediums.
a semi permeable membrane
The following conditions are required for osmosis to occur: 1) A selectively-permeable membrane 2) Concentration difference
A special type of diffusion through a membrane
Osmosis is a type of passive transport that occurs when water diffuses through a cell membrane.
diffusion- it is the type of passing of liquid from one part to another. it has semi-permeable membrane to pass the liquid. osmosis-it is the type of passing liquid but it has no membrane.
Osmosis is a type of diffusion that occurs with a semi permeable membrane. It can therefore not occur without a membrane because that is what differentiates it from diffusion.
Osmosis
Osmosis occurs when there are two solutions of different concentration strength separated by a semipermeable membrane. The membrane must allow water to cross, but not the solutes. Water will then move from the solution of lower concentration strength across the membrane to the solution of higher concentration strength. This movement of water is called osmosis.

No. Osmosis is a form of passive transport.
