Difference between osmosis and diffusion

Diffusion and osmosis is which state the movement of solvent and solute according to the concentration.

Following are the difference between osmosis and diffusion.

	Osmosis	Diffusion
Definition	Osmosis is the movement of solvent from semipermeable membrane from a lower concentration to higher concentration.	Diffusion is the movement of solute from an area of higher concentration to lower concentration.
Movement	In osmosis, only movement of solvent happens	In diffusion movement of solvent and solute happened.
Phase	Osmosis is possible only in liquid phase	Diffusion is possible in liquid and gaseous phase.
Function	Osmosis helps the maintaining water level in cells. help in transport the nutrient	Diffusion is important in creating energy help in exchange the gases in animals.
Rate	Osmosis is a slow process	Diffusion is a fast process
Semi permeable membrane	It requires the semipermeable membrane	It does not require the Diffusion semi permeable membrane.
