diffusion
diffusion plays an important role in gaseous exchange between the cells as well as the cell and it's external environment .
Osmosis
water also obeys the law of diffusion . The movement of water molecules through such a selectively permeable is called osmosis. The movement of water across the plasma membrane is also affected by the amount of substance dissolved in water. Thus,Osmosis is the passage of water from a region of high water concentration through a semi-permeable membrane to a region of low water concentration.
