Similarities between Diffusion and Osmosis

Diffusion and Osmosis are the process in both the movement of the solvent is occurring. Diffusion and osmosis both process have so many similarities

Following are the similarities between the Diffusion and Osmosis.

-  Diffusion and osmosis both processes depend on the concentration of the solution.

-  Diffusion and Osmosis in both processes movement of the solvent happens.

-  Diffusion and Osmosis in both solvents move from high concentration of solute to the lower concentration of the solvent.

-  In Diffusion and osmosis, the movement of solvent occurs until the concentration at both solution equalized.

-  Diffusion and the osmosis both does not require the energy

-  Diffusion and Osmosis both happen in living and nonliving cells.
