In diffusion, molecules travel from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. When you put a drop of ink in a glass of water, the spreading of the ink in the water is called diffusion. Similarly, if you spray an air freshener in one corner of a room, eventually people on the other side of the room will be able to smell it as well because the scent has diffused.
In osmosis, molecules also travel from higher concentration to a lower concentration. However, osmosis specifically refers to the movement of WATER molecules. Both of these types of transport are examples of passive transport, which requires no energy

One process in which materials are exchanged between the blood and the body cells is?
Nutrients are exchanged between the blood and body cell in the capillaries.
Oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged in the lungs and through all call membrane an active transport b diffusion c filtration d osmosis?
osmosis
Where in the human body is o2 and co2 exchanged?
Human gas-exchange occurs in the lungs. Once air enters the lungs, diffusion of O2 and CO2 occurs in the alveoli.
What is diffusion in biology?
Diffusion is the process that occurs when a certain concentrated volume of material moves to a less concentrated state. Facilitated diffusion is different and is done with the help of pumps actively transporting materials across the cell membrane to create the equilibrium on both sides of the membrane. ža specific type of passive transport žthe movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration ždissolved particles that are small or nonpolar can diffuse through the cell membrane ždiffusion is used to reach equilibrium –equilibrium: a condition in which the concentration of a substance is equal throughout a space
Why can amoeba have exchange of gases through its body surface?
Gas exchange in Amoeba basically takes place across the whole body surface by diffusion. With their huge surface area which is relative to the volume, single celled animals can productively get oxygen and also remove carbon dioxide via diffusion across the surface. have i helped u from this answer my name is yash verma
How nutrients are exchanged for wasted in the capillary?
by diffusion
By what fundamental process are gases exchanged in respiratory systems?
its diffusion
One process in which materials are exchanged between the blood and the body cells is?
Nutrients are exchanged between the blood and body cell in the capillaries.
Which gas law explains why there is much carbon dioxide exchanged between alveoli as there is oxygen exchanged?
diffusion
What is the process in which materials are exchanged between blood and body cells?
Diffusion
What is the process by which the materials are exchanged between the blood and the body cells?
Diffusion
What is the process by which materials exchanged between the blood and the body cells?
Diffusion
How is gas exchanged between the lung and the blood?
Yes, oxygen is transferred to the blood via aveolae in the lungs.
Process where oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged through cell membrane?
diffusion
How are gases exchanged in both sponges and cnidarians?
Cnidaria don't have gills or lungs, but they take in oxygen from surrounding water through diffusion.
How are chemicals exchanged between blood and cells?
diffusion: particles move from a high concentration to a low concentration
What microscopic respiratory structure where gases are exchanged?
This exchange of gases does not depend how "hard" you breathe but operates on the principle of Diffusion
