The movement of ions from high concentration to low concentration is called diffusion. In diffusion, ions move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration until equilibrium is reached. This process occurs spontaneously and does not require an input of energy.

What is the difference between osomosis and diffusion?
Diffusion is the movement of particles from where they are in high concentration to where they are in low concentration. Osmosis is the movement of water from where it is in high concentration to where it is in low concentration. Basically, osmosis is the diffusion of water specifically.
What are the two movement of homeostasis?
Which molecule moves to high concentration to low concentration
What is the movement of a liquid into a solution of high concentration?
water moves from a high concentration to a low concentration in a cell
How nonvascular plants get water?
Through Osmosis (The movement of water molecules from high concentration to low concentration! They absorb it.
Is diffusion an active mechanism?
False
What process that alows movement of gases and ions from areas of high consentration to low consentration?
Diffusion is the process that allows movement of gases and ions from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration. This process is driven by a concentration gradient.
Do bases have a high or low concentration of hydrogen ions?
Bases have a low concentration of hydrogen ions. In contrast, acids have a high concentration of hydrogen ions.
Osmosis concerns the movement of what?
the movement of water from high concentration to low concentration
What is is diffusion?
water movement from high of concentration to low concentration of water
What is the natural tendency of molecules to spread from an area high concentration to an area of low concentration?
Diffusion is the movement of molecules from a high concentration to a low concentration without using ATP (energy). A related term: Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a high concentration to a low concentration without using ATP (energy). In contrast, active transport is the movement of molecules from a low concentration to a high concentration but DOES use ATP (energy).

What is the name of the process where there is a movement of particles from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration until they are evenly distributed?
Diffusion is the net movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
Diffusion is the movement of molecules from?
Diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
Movement of molecules from high high to low concentration?
Movement of molecules 4m higher to lower concentration is called osmosis
What are the two movement of homeostasis?
Which molecule moves to high concentration to low concentration
What is the movement of molecules from areas high concentration to areas of low concentration?
Diffusion.
What is the movement of water through a membrane from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration?
Osmosis is the movement of water through a selectively permeable membrane from an area of high concentration of water to an area of low concentration of water.
