Diffusion is the spontaneous movement of substances from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration.

Osmosis is the passage of water molecules from a high water concentration region through a selectively permeable membrane to a low water concentration region.

In diffusion, selectively permeable membrane is neither required nor involved while in osmosis, it is involved.

<h3><u>What is the role of decomposers in ecosystem?</u></h3>

Saprophytes like fungus and bacteria are decomposers. They rely entirely on the dead and decomposing organic debris to survive. Decomposers are crucial to the ecology because they assist in recycling nutrients so that plants may utilise them again.

The function of a decomposer in the ecosystem is as follows:

  • By disintegrating dead plants and animals, they first serve as a purifying force for the environment.
  • They aid in the nutrient recycling.
  • By allowing the dead to decay, they provide room in the biosphere for new life.
  • For the benefit of reuse by producers like crop plants, they assist in reintroducing the various elements to water, soil, and air.
