Diffusion is the movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of a lower concentration down a concentration gradient.
water changing to a solid: freezing movement of particles: vibration in fixed positions. arrangement: fixed positions (bonds between every particle). moving closer together water as a liquid: movement of particles: move about (slide past each other) arrangement: close together with no regular arrangement water to gas: boiling movement of particles: free/random movement at high speeds. arrangement: particles move further apart with no bonds between particles.
As long as there is a concentration gradient. This is because diffusion occurs which is the net movement of substances from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration.
Because the concentration is going up so much energy is needed to do this. If the cell was going from a high concentration to a low, no energy is needed because it is already at a high concentration and its going lower you wouldn't need any energy to go lower at a high stance
Osmolosis
diffusion is really the random movement of either liquid or gas molecules, which results in the particles seemingly moving from a high concentration to a lower concentration, until the area has an equal concentration
Diffusion is the net movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

water moves from a high concentration to a low concentration in a cell
who even knows!
Osmosis is the random movement of particles across (through) a partially permeable membrane along a concentration gradient from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Diffusion is the random movement of particles in a solution from an area of high concentration to low concentration. Eventually the particles will be uniformly and randomly distributed.
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.
Active transport usually involves the movement of particles from high to low concentration.
Diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from high to low through a partially-permeable membrane. This is what makes osmosis different to diffusion.
