yes osmosis is diffusion through water
diffusion is a random movement of molecules from a high area of pressure to a low area of pressure
The movement of water through diffusion is called osmosis. Osmosis is the process where water molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration across a semipermeable 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.
I assume you're talking about Osmosis, but I believe there are actually other similar processes as well.
Osmosis runs on the principle of diffusion. The diffusion of water molecules through semipermeable membrane is called osmosis. We are getting most of our drinking water by RO process (i. e. reverse osmosis). Root hairs of plant absorb water by endo-osmosis.

The movement of water through diffusion is called osmosis. Osmosis is the process where water molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration across a semipermeable membrane.
Osmosis. Osmosis is not the same as diffusion of water. Diffusion of water is just diffusion like with any other substance: the particles spreading, making a homogeneous distribution. Osmosis involves a semipermeabel membrane, where water goes from low solvent concentration to high solvent concentration.

The diffusion of water through a cell membrane is known as osmosis. In osmosis, water molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration to balance the concentration of solutes on both sides of the membrane.
The diffusion of water through the cell membrane is called osmosis. Osmosis occurs when water molecules move across a semi-permeable membrane from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration in order to equalize the concentration on both sides of the membrane.

The diffusion of water through the cell'smembrane is called osmosis (ahs MOH sis). A special kind of diffusion
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.
