This process is called diffusion. Diffusion moves things from areas of high concentration to areas of lower concentration in order to create a concentrated equilibrium between the two areas.

Movement of molecules from high high to low concentration?
Movement of molecules 4m higher to lower concentration is called osmosis
What controls the direction of water movement during osmosis?
According to the Oxford English Dictionary, osmosis is defined as "a process by which molecules of a solvent tend to pass through a semipermeable membrane from a less concentrated solution into a more concentrated one" (OED 2013). The greater mass present in the higher concentrated solution of the solvent causes the water molecule to pass through the sempermeable membrane until the water concentration of water with concentrated solution are balanced on both sides.
Diffusion is the movement of a substance?
from an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration.
Movement of molecules from an area of lower concentration to one of higher concentration with energy is called?
Active Transport.
Is Diffusion made of small or large molecules?
Diffusion is not a substance. It is a physical process. Diffusion is the process where there is a movement of molecules from where they are abundant to where they are scarce. A more technical definition would be: Diffusion is a process in which molecules move from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration.
How osmosis and diffusion are alike?
Answerdiffusion- movement of molecules from higher proportion to lower proportionosmosis - movement of water molecules from a more CONCENTRATED solution to less concentrated solution
Movement of molecules from high high to low concentration?
Movement of molecules 4m higher to lower concentration is called osmosis
What moves during diffusion?
Particles, cells, and molecules move from areas of higher to lower concentrated areas.
When a solution as a greater concentration particles?
Diffusion is the net movement of molecules from an area where they are at a higher concentration to areas where they are at a lower concentration. This is due to the random movement of the molecules.
What is the term for the movement of molecules from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration?
If it is the movement of molecules then it is diffusion. If it the movement of water then it is osmosis
What is the movement of molecules from areas of lower concentrations to regions of higher concentrations?
Diffusion
What is diffusion and how does it relate to the movement of material into and out of the cell?
diffusion is the kinetic movement of molecules from higher concentration to lower concentration.
What is thermal motion?
Movement of particles (iron or molecules) from an area of higher concentration to an area.
Movement of molecules along an imaginary slope usually from higher to lower concentrations?
Diffusion.
What does water evaporate when heated?
At higher temperature the continuous movement of water molecules is accelerated.
What controls the direction of water movement during osmosis?
According to the Oxford English Dictionary, osmosis is defined as "a process by which molecules of a solvent tend to pass through a semipermeable membrane from a less concentrated solution into a more concentrated one" (OED 2013). The greater mass present in the higher concentrated solution of the solvent causes the water molecule to pass through the sempermeable membrane until the water concentration of water with concentrated solution are balanced on both sides.
What is the different between Diffusion and Osmosis?
Osmosis is the movement of a solvent (water) into a cell where the concentration of a solute is higher, the lower concentration of solute being outside the root cells. Diffusion involves the spreading of a solute from areas of higher concentrations to areas of lower concentration within a solvent.Osmosis is made possible by a semi-permeable membrane which allows the solvent in, instead of allowing the solute out.Diffusion is the movement of molecules or ions from high concentrated medium to low concentrated medium due to the continuous free movement of molecule , that doesn't require any membrane , simply it's like the movement of perfume molecules in room so that you can smell it everywhere in the room , Osmosis is the same as diffusion but first it has to be water second there must be a semi-permeable membrane or a selectively permeable one between mediums ...Pretty much osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules from an area of high to low cand diffusion is the movement of any molecule from an area of high to an area of low cso osmosis is diffusion just the diffusion of water.Diffusion: it is the movement of molecules from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentrationOsmosis: it is the movement of specifically water molecules from a region of high water potential to a region of low water potential through a partially permeable membrane. Osmosis is only ever the movement in LIQUID such as water, from a high concentrated area to a less concentrated (works against the gradient).Diffusion has the same theory, but is usually with gas.* Diffusion can happen within liquid too. It is only water that moves in osmosis.
