Diffusion: Molecules of a solute move down their concentration gradient (from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration), Can happen with or without a semi permeable membrane, Osmosis: Always happens across a semipermeable membrane, Water moves from an area of relatively low solute concentration to an area of relatively high solute concentration, Only refers to the movement of water, not other molecules, Water moves from an area of relatively high water concentration to an area of relatively low water concentration, Neither: Solutes move across the cell membrane using energy from the cell, Never happens across a semi permeable membrane, Salts move across the cell membrane down their concentration gradient (from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration), Solutes move up their concentration gradient (from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration), Both: Molecules move down their concentration gradient (from high to low concentration), Are types of passive transport,
