There has to be a difference in concentration in order for diffusion and osmosis to occur.
Diffusion is the process in which particles move from a high concentration area to a low concentration area. Osmosis is the diffusion of water, again to equalise concentrations.
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.
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.
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.

true
Diffusion is the movement of particles from where they are in high concentration to where they are in low concentration. Osmosis is the movement of water from where it is in high concentration to where it is in low concentration. Basically, osmosis is the diffusion of water specifically.

osmosis is the movement of water across the plasma or cell membrane
The relationship is that osmosis is the diffusion of water throught a selective permeable membrane.
Osmosis is related to movement of water where as diffusion is related to movement of gases.
osmosis refers to the movement of water across a membrane. Diffusion refers to everything else tending towards equal concentration.
Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a membrane, and does not require the input of energy. Active transport requires energy input.
