Yep, osmosis is a special type of diffusion where water molecules move through a semi-permeable membrane from a low solute concentration to a high one!

Not really, osmosis is unique enough to stand apart even if it's related to diffusion.

Osmosis is diffusion for water. They both balance concentrations, but osmosis specifically involves water and membranes.

Absolutely! Think of osmosis as diffusion's water-based cousin. Both involve moving particles, but osmosis is all about H2O.

Totally! Osmosis is like diffusion's hydrated sibling, moving water through membranes to balance things out.
