If you are in biology, this refers to diffusion across a cell boundry. Osmotic pressure will be moving water across any cell membrane from the low concentration to the high concentration (salt) side. Diffusion tends to move water to where it is most needed to make the concentrations equal. Put salt on one side of a membrane, water moves across the membrane to dilute the salty side.
