More collisions against the cell membrane and across them occur with more random collisions
The higher the temperature, the faster molecules move as they have more energy
Diffusion helps living things to obtain their requirements, get rid of many waste products, and carry out gaseous exchange for respiration
Diffusion is the movement of molecules from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration
Factors that influence Diffusion
Ratio of surface area to volume
Temperature & Concentration
Distance
Substances that are able to move out of cells include digested food products like glucose, amino acids, fatty acids, glycerol, etc.
The faster movement of molecules results in more random collisions
Diffusion is the movement of molecules from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration as a result of a concentration gradient
The substances that are able to move out of cells are carbon dioxide, water vapor, and oxygen
Diffusion, osmosis, and active movement are the main ways that molecules move into and out of cells through the cell membranes
The energy for diffusion comes from the kinetic energy of the random movement of molecules and ions
Molecules moving out of cells include carbon dioxide, water vapor, and oxygen
Greater difference in concentration across the membrane
