Give examples of osmosis and diffusion.


The best examples of osmosis and diffusion are as follows:

Osmosis: 

1) Red blood cells swell up when placed in freshwater. They absorb water due to the endosmosis process.

2) Plant root hairs absorb the water and minerals present in the soil.

3) when gel ball beads are soaked in water, they absorb water and take the shape of beads.

Diffusion:

1) When perfume is sprayed in the corner of a room, the scent of it fills the complete room.

2) When a drop of blue ink is added to water, complete water slowly takes the blue color due to the diffusion of ink color into the water.
