Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane. Diffusion refers to the simple property of moving from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration so that the concentration of the total area will be equal and balanced (at equilibrium). Diffusion can occur with any substance and does not require but can involve a permeable membrane.
