How diffusion differ from osmosis |
|
Answer» Osmosis is the transport of water or any other solvent molecules from a region of lower concentration to a region of higer concentration through a semipermeable membrane. Diffusion is the transport of material from a region of higher concentration or electrochemical potential or free energy or diffusion pressure due to tendency of their molecules to spread uniformly by their random movement due to their kinetic energy. ? Osmosis is special type of diffusion in which only water moves from region of higher concentration you a region of lower concentration through a semi permeable membrane |
