But during osmosis, the solvent (water) molecules move from the place of their higher concentration to the place of their lower concentration through a semi-permeable membrane. Thus, osmosis is termed as a special kind of diffusion
hg44192:
Osmosis is a special kind of diffusion because basically water can diffuse through the membrane, but nothing else in the water that is- salt, sugar and other solute can diffuse. In osmosis movement of water molecules only occur and also a semi- permeable membrane is involved in osmosis. Osmosis occurs from high concentration to the low concentration.
