Diffusion and osmosis are both passive transport processes that involve the movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. The main difference is that osmosis specifically refers to the movement of water molecules across a semi-permeable membrane, while diffusion can involve any type of molecule.
What else can I help you with?
Is diffusion the same thing as Osmosis?
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.
A type of passive diffusion where water moves through a semipermeable membrane toward an area of higher solute concentration is called?
I assume you're talking about Osmosis, but I believe there are actually other similar processes as well.
What is a synonym for osmosis?
assimilation , diffusion , passage
In what way are diffusion and osmosis similar?
Diffusion and osmosis are both passive processes that involve the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. They both do not require energy input from the cell to occur.

Are diffusion and osmosis the same process?
Diffusion and osmosis are similar processes, but they are not the same. Diffusion is the movement of molecules 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.
Is diffusion the same thing as Osmosis?
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.
Diffusion and osmosis are similar in that they are both types of?
Diffusion and osmosis are similar in that they are both passive processes that involve the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. However, osmosis specifically refers to the movement of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane.
Are diffusion and osmosis passive or active transports?
Diffusion and osmosis are passive and do not require energy.

What is driven by hydrostatic fluid pressure?
Diffusion, Osmosis
What type are osmosis and diffusion?
diffusion and osmosis are types of ways to get materials into or out of a cell

How is osmosis different from simple diffusion?
Osmosis is very similar to normal diffusion, but osmosis is only the movement of water through a "partially permeable membrane" where as simple diffusion is the movement of anything from an area of high concetrations to low, such as gas in a room.
