Osmosis is a special kind of?
Osmosis is the passage of water molecules from a weak to a strong solution of sugars, usually across a semi-permeable membrane.
Why is osmosis special type of diffusion?
Osmosis is considered a specialised type of diffusion because it ONLY involves water passing from a region of high water potential to an area of low water potential through a partially-permeable membrane. Osmosis takes place primarily in our small intestines, where water is absorbed.
Is osmosis a form of diffusion?
Yes. Osmosis is a special case of diffusion - in involves just water diffusing across a semipermeable membranes - like in cell membranes.
