OsmosisDiffusionIn osmosis movement of molecules takes place through a semi-permeable membrane.In diffusion there is no role of semi-permeable membrane.It involves movement of only solvent molecules from one side to the other.It involves passage of solvent as well as solute molecules from one region to the other.Osmosis is limited to solutions only.Diffusion can take place in liquids, gases and solutions.Osmosis can be stopped or reversed by applying additional pressure on the solution side.Diffusion can neither be stopped nor reversed

Hey !!
DIFFUSION
In diffusion, no semipermeable membrane is used.
In this process,the solvent as well as the solute molecules move directly into each other.
It takes place from higher concentration to lower concentration.
It takes place in gases as well as solutions.
It cannot be stopped or reversed.
OSMOSIS
In osmosis, a semipermeable membrane is used.
In this process, there is only flow of solvent molecules and that too through the semi-permeable membrane.
It takes place from lower concentration to higher concentration.
It applies to solutions only.
It can be stopped or reversed by applying pressure on the solution with higher concentration.
