Osmosis is a special mind of diffusion because it's the movement of water molecules across the membrane. Diffusion is the movement of gas (gaseous exchange) across the membrane.

Hope this was helpful !!

Ipsita03: Oops. Sorry for the mistake. I meant 'kind' not 'mind'.
iiii63027: Wrong answer
iiii63027: Diffusion is also used for water movemenet
Ipsita03: Really? Well...I referred 2 textbooks and it says what I said.
Ipsita03: But if u say so that it's wrong then I'll research more I guess......
