Diffusion is the movement of particles from an area of high concentration to low concentration; osmosis is the same thing, but with water molecules, not other types of molecules.
Osmosis differs from Diffusion because in osmosis only water moves, and during diffusion, small molecules move across the cell membrane.
The differences between diffusion and osmosis are really just that osmosis takes place with water and through a membrane. Diffusion is just the spread of molecules from high concentration to low. Osmosis is diffusion of water through a membrane.
Osmosis is related to movement of water where as diffusion is related to movement of gases.
The difference between Diffusion and Osmosis is by the process of them diffusing and the outcome such as an example of a sugar cube... In Diffusion Molecules move from high concentration just Osmosis although in the diffusion process of "Diffusion" it uses Kinetic energy and Concentration Gradient while "Osmosis" does not require cells to expand energy, in result Osmosis uses Passive Transport of Water.
Osmosis is the diffusion of water.
The relationship is that osmosis is the diffusion of water throught a selective permeable membrane.
Osmosis differs from Diffusion because in osmosis only water moves, and during diffusion, small molecules move across the cell membrane.
osmosis is the movement of water across the plasma or cell membrane

osmosis is diffusion through a membrane
Diffusion and osmosis are passive and do not require energy.
Diffusion describes the movement of molecules from where they are abundant to where they are scarce - or from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration Osmosis is diffusion through a semi-permeable membrane
Osmosis is the diffusion of water across the cell membrance
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.
