The correct answer is

Osmosis

Osmosis is the passive movement of a solvent (usually water) through a semipermeable membrane from a solution of lower solute concentration to one of higher solute concentration, until the concentrations equalise.

Diffusion is the movement of solute particles from higher to lower concentration and does not require a semipermeable membrane; oxygen debt is the extra oxygen consumed after exercise; dyspnea means difficult or laboured breathing.

Hence, the process described is Osmosis.
