The rate of diffusion through a semipermeable membrane will be lowest when temperatures are low. Lower temperatures decrease the energy of the molecules, which in turn decreases the rate of diffusion.

What are some examples of hypotonic isotonic and hypertonic?

If there is 99.1% water (0.9% NaCl) inside the cell and 99.5% water (0.5% NaCl) outside the cell, the water goes from where it is highest (99.1) to where it is lowest (99.5). This is the concept of osmosis, or the diffusion of water across a semi-permeable membrane. Diffusion always occurs from a high to a lowconcentration of molecules as they are moving due to their kinetic energy (energy of motion).


What might you conclude about the concentration of diffusion?

Things always move from the highest concentration to the lowest concentration until the levels even out.


What are the major causes of diffusion?

In a chemical sense diffusion is a result of the energy of the system (temperature). The movement of the molecules (or atoms) allow them to disperse themselves amongst like sized particles. Diffusion is a slow process compared to convection - in other words dye spreads slowly through still water, quickly through stirred water. Diffusion is one of the major component of entropy a major component of thermo-dynamics.

Is it true that solids can often diffuse into a liquid but cannot diffuse into another solid?

Yes Diffusion is mainly gases property Diffusion is shown also by liquids but much less than the gases Liquids diffuse from solutions of higher concentration to solutions of lower concentration So the driving force for the diffusion is concentration difference. Rate of Diffusion depends on liquid`s viscosity,temperature etc. depends on what is the liquid however. (oil and water dont) examples food coloring in water. liquid chocolate in milk.

In a transverse wave the peak of the wave is the crest and the lowest spot is the through?

True, the peak is the crest and the lowest is the trough.


What does hierarchical diffusion?

If you are taking Biology you know that hierarchy means order from greatest to least and diffusion means spontaneous movement of particles of any kind where they are more concentrated to less concentrated so I believe the answer would be the highest level of particles to the lowest level of particles. Do not quote me on that but it sounds about right. If you're talking about human geography hierarchical diffusion is a form of diffusion in which an idea or innovation spreads by trickling down from larger to smaller adoption units.
