Osmosis IS diffusion - except that only certain molecules are allowed to pass through the membrane.
Osmosis is a type of diffusion but through a barrier (membrane) while "diffusion" is not specified if there is a physical barrier or not. Gases diffuse through each other readily.
Diffision is the net movement of molecules from an area where there are many to an area where there are few. Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a cell membrane. Both use each other because diffision is what happens in an osmosis.
diffusion of water. It moves because it wants to reach equilibrium (equal water on each side)
Diffusion is the process of air particles or molecules that moves from a point of higher concentration to point of lower concentration until the molecules are equally distributed among the particular area ,Osmosis is the process of water particles from a point of higher concentration to a point of lower concentration until the molecules are equally balance on each side of the membrane.
Yes. Plants get nutrients through cell to cell osmosis , in which , the cells pass the minerals or ions via each other to the leaf for manufacture of food.

Two cells with identical solute concentrations are isotomic to each other is true when it comes to osmosis. Osmosis also obeys the laws of diffusion.

The term for the diffusion of water across a semipermeable membrane is osmosis. Osmosis is when the molecules of a solvent move from a less concentrated solution to a more concentrated one. This equalizes the concentrations on each side of the member.

The processes of diffusion and osmosis are important for survival because important biological processes depend on them. For example, water is transported into and out of cells through osmosis instead of active transport.

Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane. Diffusion refers to the simple property of moving from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration so that the concentration of the total area will be equal and balanced (at equilibrium). Diffusion can occur with any substance and does not require but can involve a permeable membrane.
Any of these are acceptable: Osmosis Diffusion Passive transport
NO, They are very different, just opposite of each other Osmosis is when a solvent (like water) moves through a semi-permeable membrane, from a solution of low concentration, to a solution with high concentration. Diffusion is the movement of molecules in a solvent, from a region of higher concentration to one of lower concentration by random molecular motion.
