The difference between osmosis and diffusion is that osmosis is the spreading of water from a high to low concentration while diffusion is the spreading of molecules or particles from a high to low concentration.

Answer:

This whole statement is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

This given statement is false because,

Osmosis is the movement of particles from higher concentration to lower concentration through semipermeable membrane, that's why it is a slow process. It requires any medium to move particles.

On the other hand, Diffusion is the movement of particles from higher concentration to lower concentration without membrane, that's why it is a fast process. It requires only liquid medium to move particles.
