what is typical difference between osmosis and diffusion for class 11th level

Open in App
Solution

Differences between osmosis and diffusion are:

1) Osmosis occurs through a semi permeable membrane, while diffusion does not have any such requirement.

2) Osmosis is the movement of water from a less concentrated solution to a more concentrated solution; while diffusion is the movement of solute molecules from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration.
