Osmosis is the movement of a solvent (water) into a cell where the concentration of a solute is higher, the lower concentration of solute being outside the root cells. Diffusion involves the spreading of a solute from areas of higher concentrations to areas of lower concentration within a solvent.
Osmosis is made possible by a semi-permeable membrane which allows the solvent in, instead of allowing the solute out.
