How is diffusion important to cell processes such as photosynthesis?

Diffusion is the process by which small particles move from a place of high concentration to a place of lower concentration.
By diffusion, small molecules like salts can go inside a cell from the outside. To keep itself alive, a Cell needs to take in many things from its outside.
In Photosynthesis, gaseous Carbon Dioxide (CO2) enters the plant cell by diffusion. CO2 is very important in building food and making energy for the plants.

In plant cell where diffusion occurs?
Gas exchange for photosynthesis - CO2 from the air diffuses into the leaf, and 02 diffuses out of the leaf into the air
What role did diffusion play in the changes you observed?
Before diffusion there is a higher concentration of oxygen molecules outside the cell than inside the cell. After diffusion the concentration of oxygen molecules is the same outside and inside the cell.
Why is it important for scientists to find out more about cell division?
Cell division is essential to life - all forms of reproduction, as well as repair, rely on cell division. Learning about cell division gives a person an understanding of one of the most important processes in biology.
What takes materials in and out of a cell?
The plasma member is a selectively permeable membrane which allows the entry and exit of substances in and out of the cell through the process of diffusion.
What role does chloroplast play in a cell?
The chloroplast is the organelle responsible for photosynthesis in plants.
Why is Photosynthesis important in the plant cell?
It produces glucose for use in all life processes .
What are the main processes for a cell?
Respiration and diffusion
Which cell processes and sorts proteins to be shipped?
Which cell is where photosynthesis occurs
What processes are responsible for chemicals moving into throughout and out of the cell?
diffusion
What are the three transport processes that do not require cell energy?
Passive Transport,Facilitated Diffusion, and Simple Diffusion
What are the processes involved in moving substances across the cell membrane?
Diffusion
How atom and molecules are important to cell processes explain?
why atom and molecules are important to cell processes explain
Why are the cell chloroplast sis important to the cell?
It is very important. They are doing photosynthesis.
What two processes transport materials through the semi-permable membrane?
Considering the cell membrane itself, processes include diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion (passive processes that do not require energy) and active transport (an active process that requires energy).
What do the processes of photosynthesis and cell respiration have in common?
photosynthesis and cellular respiration can smd.
What two processes move large packets of molecules across the cell membrane?
osmosis and diffusion
Infer why endocytosis and exocytosis are important processes to cells?
because some molecules and partcles are too large to move by diffusion or to use the cell membranes transport proteins.
