Question

Accepted Answer

∻Answer∻ ⚹ Osmosis is the movement of water across a semipermeable membrane from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration, while diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration until equilibrium is reached. ⚹ ∻Solution∻ ‖ a ⋮ Osmosis: ⋮ ‖ ‖ b ⋮ Diffusion: ⋮ ‖ ∻Key Concept∻ ⚹ Osmosis vs. Diffusion ⚹ ∻Explanation∻ ⚹ Osmosis specifically refers to the movement of water across a membrane driven by a concentration gradient, while diffusion refers to the movement of any molecules down their concentration gradient. ⚹◊How do the differences in cell wall structure affect the process of osmosis and diffusion in plant cells?⍭ Generate me a similar question◊
