Detailed explanation-1: -Osmosis And Diffusion Examples To see an easy demonstration of osmosis, soak gummy candies in water. The gel of the candies acts as a semipermeable membrane. Examples of Diffusion: Examples of diffusion include perfume filling a whole room and the movement of small molecules across a cell membrane.
Detailed explanation-2: -Osmosis is a special type of diffusion, namely the diffusion of water across a semipermeable membrane. Water readily crosses a membrane down its potential gradient from high to low potential (Fig.
Detailed explanation-3: -Osmosis is a special type of diffusion, namely the diffusion of water across a semipermeable membrane. Water readily crosses a membrane down its potential gradient from high to low potential (Fig. 19.3) [4]. Osmotic pressure is the force required to prevent water movement across the semipermeable membrane.
