"Flowing Through Membranes: Osmosis and Diffusion Explained"
No, diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to low concentration, while osmosis is the specific type of diffusion involving water molecules moving across a semi-permeable membrane. Osmosis specifically refers to the movement of water molecules.
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.
The diffusion of water molecules is called osmosis. This process involves the movement of water across a selectively permeable membrane from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.

Diffusion and osmosis are passive and do not require energy.

Two forms of passive transport (or transport not involving energy/ATP) are diffusion and facilitated diffusion. Another form is osmosis. Also keep in mind that passive transport is for smaller particles.

diffusion and osmosis are types of ways to get materials into or out of a cell
osmosis is the movement of water across the plasma or cell membrane

Diffusion and osmosis are forms of passive transport, where molecules move across a membrane without the need of energy. Diffusion involves the movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration, while osmosis specifically refers to the movement of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane.
Simple diffusion: Small, non-polar molecules move across the cell membrane without the need for energy. Facilitated diffusion: Larger or polar molecules use carrier proteins to move across the cell membrane without energy expenditure. Osmosis: The movement of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration.
