Diffusion is the process of molecules moving from high concentration to low concentration in a material. This will occur eventually through random movement and in simple diffusion is specifically without the aid of an intermediary such as integral membrane protein.
Factors that affect simple diffusion include concentration gradient (higher concentration difference leads to faster diffusion), temperature (higher temperatures increase diffusion rate), surface area available for diffusion (larger surface area allows for faster diffusion), and characteristics of the molecules themselves (size and solubility).
no
Simple diffusion
Passive transport is dependent on the permeability of the cell membrane, which, in turn, is dependent on the organization and characteristics of the membrane lipids and proteins. The four main kinds of passive transport are diffusion, facilitated diffusion, filtration and osmosis.Simple diffusion is the unassisted passage of small, hydrophobic, nonpolar molecules.

simple diffusion, osmosis and facilitated diffusion.
Simple diffusion.
In simple diffusion, a substance passes through a membrane without any outside intermediary. The rate of diffusion is based on the force exerted..
It doesn't. (answer by RRU member Cyrem)
facilitated diffusion
Simple squamous epithelium has the shortest diffusion distance due to its thin structure, allowing for rapid diffusion of substances across the epithelium.
both need transport protein
In Biology there are three types of diffusion. There are simple, channel, and facilitated diffusion.
