Diffusion is the net movement of particles(atoms,ions or molecules) from a region where are of higher concentration to a region where they are of lower concentration, down a concentration gradient.
Factors that affect the rate of diffusion
1.Temperature
2.the concentration gradient
3.Physical movement
4 surface area to volume ratio
The passage of water from the less concentrated solution to the more concentrated solution across a partially permeable membrane is a process called osmosis
Diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to low concentration. Facilitated diffusion involves the use of transport proteins to move specific molecules across the cell membrane. Osmosis specifically refers to the movement of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane.
Diffusion is the movement of particles from an area of high concentration to low concentration. Osmosis is the specific type of diffusion where water molecules move through a selectively permeable membrane. Facilitated diffusion involves the movement of specific molecules across a membrane with the help of transport proteins.

Aquaporins are involved in osmosis by facilitating the movement of water molecules across cell membranes. They do not participate in facilitated diffusion, which involves the transport of solutes across membranes with the help of carrier proteins.
Osmosis is an example of passive transport, specifically a type of facilitated diffusion. In osmosis, water molecules move across a semipermeable membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration without the use of energy.
