Osmosis and diffusion DO NOT require energy for materials to enter and exit a cell. How are osmosis and diffusion different from one another?

a)

While both are passive transport processes, osmosis is water movement from low to high concentrations of solutes, and diffusion is the movement of substances from high to low concentration.

b)

While both are passive transport processes, osmosis is water movement from high to low concentrations of solutes, and diffusion is the movement of substances from high to low concentration.

b)

The products of photosynthesis are the reactants of cellular respiration, and the reactants of cellular respiration are the products of photosynthesis.

20.
