When particles diffuse they break apart, down into simpler substances.
Diffusion is the net movement of molecules from high to low concentration through random motion. From the particle point of view it just moves about at random (as usual) but the overall effect is for the particles to spread out evenly.

How many types of Passive transport are there?
1) Passive diffusion. 2) Carrier mediated diffusion. In passive diffusion particles move from higher concentration to lower concentration. In carrier mediated passive diffusion a carrier protein comes, takes a paricle with it, go inside the cell membrane and liberate the particle inside. This is simple physics. By this way, once equal concentration is achieved (50 % on either side.) the diffusion should stop. But in biology the absorption may extend to very high level by passive diffusion. In biology on the other side of the cells there are cappilaries. They carry away the particle, say glucose, and maintain the concentration gradient. And so absorption continuesto very high level. ( Till all the particles are equally distributed.)
What is the purpose for diffusion and osmosis?
There is no real purpose. But they are both forms of particle movement across the concentration gradient (from high concentration). You could say that the purpose is to balance the amount of a certain particle. NATURE HATES HIGH CONCENTRATION OF PARTICLES IN ONE AREA! :)
Difference between molecular motion and diffusion?
It triggers diffusion because diffusion is the movement of molecules, therefore as soon as the molecules move diffusion begins to do it's job. It will take them from areas of greater concentration to areas of lesser concentration.
What is the natural tendency of molecules to spread evenly through a room?
Diffusion
How diffusion will occur?
diffusion is occur when different concentration gradient is applied
What the intermixing of particle are known as and why?
diffusion
What are the particle involved in diffusion?
Diffusion is due to the Transitional movement of molecules or particles.
A phenomena that can be explained with the particle model?
Diffusion
What is one part of the particle theory that is important to diffusion?
One important part of the particle theory for diffusion is that particles are in constant random motion. This motion allows particles to spread out and mix with other particles in a process known as diffusion.
What happens for diffusion to occur?
two molecules must collied before diffusion happens.
Explain why diffusion is evidence for particle models?
Diffusion occurs because particles move randomly in all directions until they are evenly distributed. This can be explained by the particle model, which states that matter is made up of tiny particles that are constantly in motion. The movement of particles in diffusion supports the idea that substances are composed of particles that are constantly moving.
Why you get the smell of drainage several meters away?
because of particle diffusion in the air
What is the size of a diffusion particle?
Diffusion particles can vary in size, ranging from nanoparticles (1-100 nm) to larger molecules or particles. The size of a diffusion particle affects its movement and speed in a medium. Smaller particles generally diffuse more rapidly than larger ones due to their higher mobility.
What is particle movement from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration called?
Diffusion
How is a particle able to move from a region of lesser cocentration to a region of higher concentration?
Diffusion
What are the types of particle transport how particles move into and out of the cell?
The types of particle transport mechanisms by which particles move into and out of the cell are diffusion, osmosis, and active transport.
Diffusion of water molecules?
Happens a lot.
