Diffusion is a type of passive transport. The factors that influence diffusion include: concentration gradient, size of molecule involved, distance the molecule has to travel, temperature, solubility of the molecule and surface area.
equilibrium
equilibrium QUEENSCENE: yes, equilibrium because the concentration of molecules will be the same throughout the space the molecules occupy.
Besides the concentration of the chemical, the pore size of the plasma membrane, and the osmotic pressure of the cytoplasm - nothing else influences the rate of diffusion of a chemical across a plasma membrane.
The rate of diffusion is not affected by the size of the diffusing particles; while smaller particles typically diffuse faster, larger particles can still diffuse at a rate influenced more by their concentration gradient and the medium they are in. Additionally, the presence of a barrier that allows for diffusion does not impact the inherent rate of diffusion itself, though it may affect the overall process. Factors like the type of substance, temperature, and concentration gradient are the primary influences on diffusion rates.
The equilibrium constant (Keq) reflects the ratio of concentrations of products to reactants at equilibrium in a chemical reaction. While Keq itself does not directly affect diffusion, it influences the concentration gradients that drive diffusion. When a reaction reaches equilibrium, the concentrations stabilize, impacting the net movement of molecules. Thus, changes in Keq can indirectly affect the diffusion rates by altering the concentration differences across a membrane or barrier.

The antonym of cultural diffusion is cultural isolation or cultural segregation, which refers to the deliberate exclusion or limitation of external cultural influences on a society or group.

The rate of diffusion is influenced by the concentration gradient, temperature, molecular size, and the medium through which the particles are diffusing. A steeper concentration gradient, higher temperature, smaller molecular size, and a less dense medium all tend to increase the rate of diffusion.

Diffusion leads to the state of equilibrium, where there is an equal distribution of molecules or particles throughout a system. At equilibrium, there is no net movement of particles from one area to another because the concentration gradient has been equalized.
contagious diffusion, relocation diffusion, expansion diffusion, stimulus diffusion, hierarchical diffusion.
distance involved =diffusion at short distances occurs at a greater rate than diffusion at long distances area involved= diffusion over short distance occurs at a greater rate than diffusion over long distances Barriers=thicker barriers slow down rates of diffusion
diffusion
Diffusion will eventually result in equilibrium, where there is an equal distribution of particles or molecules throughout the space available. This occurs because diffusion naturally moves substances from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration until the concentration is the same everywhere.
