No. Gas exchange is when carbon dioxide rich blood is traded for oxygen rich blood. The lungs do this exchange. Diffusion is when a liquid, usually water, is spread out equally from high concentration areas to low concentration areas. Osmosis is when diffusion happens through a differentially permeable membrane, which only lets in certain molecules and repels others (like a potato sack letting out sand but not marbles).
Diffusion
The four phases of gas exchange in humans are ventilation, pulmonary diffusion, transport of gases in the blood, and systemic diffusion. Ventilation involves the movement of air in and out of the lungs. Pulmonary diffusion is the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the alveoli and the blood. Transport of gases involves the carriage of oxygen by hemoglobin and carbon dioxide by plasma. Systemic diffusion is the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the blood and body tissues.
Gas exchange in the lungs occurs through diffusion. Oxygen diffuses from the alveoli into the blood, while carbon dioxide diffuses from the blood into the alveoli. The rate of diffusion is determined by factors such as the partial pressure differences of the gases, the surface area available for exchange, and the thickness of the respiratory membrane.
The lowest rate of gas exchange is likely the result of decreased surface area for exchange, thickening of the respiratory membrane, or a decrease in the concentration gradient of gases. These factors can impair the efficiency of gas diffusion across the respiratory surfaces.
Hydrogen and helium have the same rate of diffusion at standard temperature and pressure (STP) due to their similar molecular weights and sizes.

Yes...stomata helps in the diffusion of gas,and oxygen is a gas
It is simpie diffusion through body surface
Respiratory gas exchange is the diffusion of both carbon dioxide and oxygen from the capillaries to the alveoli in our lungs, and vice versa.
The gas occurs by simple diffusion through the cells.
Because to carry out the process of diffusion of gas.
the organ that is involved in gas exchange is the lung. the specific lung structure that is the site for gas exchange is the alveolus which is part of the alveoli, which is found in the lung.

In animals, gas exchanges are primarily made by diffusion across respiratory surfaces such as the lungs or gills. This is where oxygen enters the bloodstream and carbon dioxide exits. In plants, gas exchange primarily occurs through small openings called stomata on the leaves.
Capillaries have thin walls that allow for diffusion of gases such as oxygen and carbon dioxide between the blood in the capillary and surrounding tissues. The close proximity of capillaries to cells ensures efficient exchange of gases due to a short diffusion distance. Additionally, the high surface area of capillaries facilitates a large area for gas exchange to occur.
