Dialysis is the separation of particles in a liquid on the basis of differences in their ability to pass through a membrane. As a semi permeable membrane is involved, so it is an osmosis.

How do osmosis differ from diffusion?
osmosis is diffusion through a membrane
What are the differences of the processes of osmosis and diffusion?
Osmosis is the diffusion of water.
Osmosis is the diffusion of?
Osmosis is the diffusion of water across the cell membrance
What does concentration have to do with osmosis and diffusion?
There has to be a difference in concentration in order for diffusion and osmosis to occur.
What is the difference between osmosis and dialysis?
Dialysis only refers to the transfer of the solute, while the transfer of the solvent is called osmosis.
Can osmosis and diffusion can both occur at the same time through a dialysis membrane?
no
What are the differences of the processes of osmosis and diffusion?
Osmosis is the diffusion of water.
How do osmosis differ from diffusion?
osmosis is diffusion through a membrane
Are diffusion and osmosis passive or active transports?
Diffusion and osmosis are passive and do not require energy.
Osmosis is the diffusion of?
Osmosis is the diffusion of water across the cell membrance
Do cells have to work to make osmosis happen?
No, osmosis is a type of diffusion. Diffusion never requires work. Osmosis occurs when water seeks equilibrium. The water will naturally try to have the same amount of solvents in it without work from the cell. You can do osmosis experiments using a dialysis bag. Put solvent (such as sugar) in the bag with some water. Then put the bag in a cup of water. Watch what happens :)
Are earthworms diffusion or osmosis?
osmosis
What is the diffusion of water through the cell membrane is called?
Facilitated Diffusion
What type are osmosis and diffusion?
diffusion and osmosis are types of ways to get materials into or out of a cell
What is driven by hydrostatic fluid pressure?
Diffusion, Osmosis
What does concentration have to do with osmosis and diffusion?
There has to be a difference in concentration in order for diffusion and osmosis to occur.
Three types of passive transport?
There are three forms of passive transport, or the movement of biochemical and other atomic or molecular substances across the cell membranes. They are: osmosis, simple diffusion or facilitated diffusion, and filtration.
