Osmosis is the movement of solvent molecules from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration through a semi-permeable membrane, in order to equalize the concentration on both sides.
Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane from a region of lower solute concentration to a region of higher solute concentration, while diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Both processes involve the movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration, but osmosis specifically refers to the movement of water molecules.
Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a semipermeable membrane from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration. Diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration, without the need for a membrane. Osmosis specifically involves water molecules, whereas diffusion can occur with various types of molecules.
Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane from an area of higher water concentration to an area of lower water concentration. Simple diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. The main similarity is that both processes involve the movement of molecules across a membrane, but osmosis specifically refers to the movement of water molecules.
Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane from an area of higher water concentration to an area of lower water concentration. Diffusion is the movement of particles (such as ions, molecules, or gases) from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Thus, osmosis specifically refers to the movement of water molecules, while diffusion refers to the movement of any type of particle.
Diffusion describes the movement of molecules from where they are abundant to where they are scarce - or from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration Osmosis is diffusion through a semi-permeable membrane

Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a semipermeable membrane from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration. Diffusion is the movement of any molecules from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration. so yes it is possible to have diffusion without osmosis.

Osmosis is the net movement of water molecules across a semipermeable membrane from a region of a lower concentration to a higher concentration. Diffusion is the movement of particles from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration down a concentration gradient
Diffusion is the movement of molecules from the area of higher concentration to the area of lower concentration i.e.along concentration gradient . Osmosis is the movement of water across a semi-permeable member from a solution of lesser solute concentration to a solution of higher solute concentration .
The random movement of water molecules through a partially permeable membrane from a higher concentration to a lower concentration.
osmosis is the passive movement of a substance from a place where its concentration is higher, to another where its concentration is lower. This applies to gases, I guess
Diffusion is movement of molecules, from region of higher concentration, to the region of lower concentration, along concentration gradient.
If it is the movement of molecules then it is diffusion. If it the movement of water then it is osmosis
