What is Osmosis vs. Diffusion Overview about?
The document compares diffusion and osmosis, highlighting that diffusion involves the movement of particles from high to low concentration and is a passive process, while osmosis specifically involves water and requires a semi-permeable membrane. Active transport is also mentioned, which moves substances against the concentration gradient and requires energy. The document provides examples of how these processes function in plants, such as oxygen entering leaves and minerals entering root hair cells.
