This biology tutorial covers the concept of osmosis, a type of passive transport where water moves from areas of higher purity to areas with more solutes. The video explains the components of a solution, including solutes and solvents, and demonstrates how osmosis differs from diffusion. It also introduces active transport, which requires energy to move molecules across cell membranes, contrasting it with passive transport methods like osmosis and diffusion.

What is the key difference between osmosis and diffusion?

• Osmosis occurs in plants, while diffusion occurs in animals.

• Osmosis requires energy, while diffusion does not.

• Osmosis involves water moving to areas with more solutes, while diffusion involves movement from higher to lower concentration.

• Osmosis involves solutes moving, while diffusion involves solvents moving.
