When perfume opened odor is experienced all around the room?
Eventually yes. air currents move the scent molecules. A lesser effect in practise is gaseous diffusion which occurs even in still air.
Do Carbohydrate molecules form the regulatory molecules known as enzymes?
yeah they actually do even though it is surprising!
What happens to small molecules of protein in the mouth?
Small Molecules enter the small intestine after going through the stomach. It gets broken into even smaller pieces. Then it goes into capillaries.
What four properties does matter have?
Matter's property depends on how it's molecules are interacting(if they move,or not).The four properties of matter are solid,liquid,gas,and plasma.A solid matter's molecules don't move apart,yet the other three do.Liquid molecules do move apart ,but not by much.Gas molecules will move apart as far as they can.Plasma takes it even farther,the electrons in it even move apart from the rest of the molecule.
Why do gases spread faster than liquids or solids?
To see why solids melt and liquids freeze, you need to know two things about matter (solids, liquids, and gases). First, all ordinary matter is made up of atoms, often attached together as molecules. The matter tends to stay together because those molecules are pulling on each other. The other thing is that molecules are always bumping and moving around, and the hotter they are, the more they move.When you get a solid hot, the molecules bump around faster and harder until they start breaking apart and moving around each other; that's when a solid melts and becomes a liquid. However, in a liquid, the molecules still pull on each other enough to stay bunched together (that's why a drop of water on a table is round, and doesn't spread out all over). If you heat the liquid up even more, the molecules fly around fast enough to break totally free of each other; now they can go anywhere, and the liquid boils off into a gas and just spreads out and mixes into the air.The opposite happens when you cool down a gas: first it becomes a liquid, then a solid.Some solids can even become a gas without first becoming a liquid; this is called "sublimation". For instance, ice in a freezer slowly disappears, since it's subliming into a gas. The opposite happens, too: that's why you get frost (which is tiny ice crystals) in a freezer, and on cold window panes.Changing the pressure on a solid, liquid, or gas can make it change state, too.
What molecules make a scent?
Organic Molecules are involved in the sense of smell; specifically esters, amines, ketones, and even aldehydes.
What do molecules do in a solid liquid and gas?
Solid. The molecules are compacted together and vibrate at high speeds. Liquid. The molecules are still close together but are not fixed and can roll around each other. they spread to take the shape of the container. the molecules move at even higher speeds than solid. Gas. The molecules are far away from each other and move even faster than water Molecules. the spread out or shrink inward to meet the shape of the container.

Eventually yes. air currents move the scent molecules. A lesser effect in practise is gaseous diffusion which occurs even in still air.
What is cell diffusion?
One way that substances enter a cell is through diffusion. Diffusion is the process by which molecules spread from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration. When the molecules are even throughout a space it is called equilibrium.
Can a vampire smell a person's blood when not showed?
yea. they can, mostly because of the human scent which gives away the scent of a persons blood, even though each persons blood scent is unique in different ways.
What does sweet scent do in Pokemon silver?
it attracts wild Pokemon even more;)
What occurs when molecules of one substance are spread evenly throughout another substance?
Diffusion; to spread out evenly into water or airmolecules spread out from area of HIGH conc to area of LOW consuntil spread out evenlyEquilibrium : balance achieved between forces causing the stuff to spreadheat usually, hotter gives faster diffusionConcentration Gradient: gradual change in the amount of material dissolvedspread from higher to lower until evenly diffused
If a dog can scent other dogs scent can they tell what kind of dog they are?
Yes, dogs have such a good sense of smell, they can even tell what gender, what age, what breed, if it is healthy, and if it is happy.
What scent can a woman not resist?
The most potent smell known to man is the smell of human feces mixed with motor oil. this scent can overpower even the most chaste nun
How does moving air work?
Air flows from high pressure to low pressure, because the pressure difference acts as a force on the air molecules. A more complicated answer involves the inherent motion of the air molecules due to heat, how compressing a volume can make them move even faster, and how air moves from one location to another because the faster molecules in one region spread into a slower region, and at the same time spread their energy as they collide with molecules at the boundary of the regions, in order to equalize a combination of thermodynamic properties involving the speed and mass of the molecules. This combination is called the 'pressure', so this answer is really the same as the first answer, but just a tad more thorough.
Does active transport result in an even distribution of molecules?
No. Active transport uses energy to transport specific molecules against a concentration gradient. Passive transport will result in an even distribution of molecules because they allow molecules to move down a concentration gradient.
Atmospheric molecules do not fly off into outer space because of?
gravity, even air molecules have weight
