Question

what is the difference between diffusion and osmosis ? explain how dioxide and oxygen move in and out of the cell. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Osmosis is the movement of solvent particles across a semipermeable membrane from a dilute solution into a concentrated solution. ... Diffusion: Diffusion is the movement of particles from an area of higher concentration to lower concentration.

Answer 2

Answer:

Diffusion is the process in which the gaseous substance moves from the area of higher concentration of air to the area of lower concentration of air in and out of the cell whereas, osmosis is the process in which the water moves from the the area of higher water concentration to the area of lower water concentration in and out of the cell.

Carbond dioxide and oxygen move in and out of the cell through the process of diffusion as their gaseous in state. Cell membrane is a selectively permeable membrane which allows the oxygen to move out and carbon dioxide to get in the cell.
