Difference osmotic pressure and diffusion pressure deficti
Answers
Diffusion: it is the pressure where solution is directly passed
Osmotic pressure is the minimum pressure which needs to be applied to a solution to prevent the inward flow of its pure solvent across a semipermeable membrane. It is also defined as the measure of the tendency of a solution to take in pure solvent by osmosis
An excellent example of a semipermeable membrane is that inside the shell of an egg. After shell removal is accomplished with acetic acid, the membrane around the egg can be used to demonstrate osmosis. Karo syrup is essentially pure sugar, with very little water in it, so its osmotic pressure is very low.
The term diffusion pressure deficit (DPD) was coined by B.S Meyer in 1938. Originally DPD was described as suction pressure by Renner (1915). It is a reduction in the diffusion pressure of water in solution or cell over its pure state due to the presence of solutes in it and forces opposing diffusion.
