What else can I help you with?
What movement of gas molecules from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration?
osmosis is the passive movement of a substance from a place where its concentration is higher, to another where its concentration is lower. This applies to gases, I guess
What term refers to the movement of molecules from a higher concentration to an area of lower concentration?
Diffusion, a form of passive transport, is the movement of molecules from an area of greater concentration to an area of lower concentration. Osmosis is a special case involvement the movement of water from an area of higher concentration of water molecules to an area of lower concentration of water molecules. It takes place in all three states of matter-Solids, liquids and gases.
The diffusion of wat?
Diffusion is the movement of particles (atoms, ions or molecules) from a region in which they are in higher concentration to regions of lower concentration.
Why does osmosis require a semipermeable membrane while diffusion does not?
Osmosis involves the movement of water molecules across a semipermeable membrane from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration. The presence of a semipermeable membrane is necessary to prevent the movement of solute molecules while allowing water molecules to pass through. Diffusion, on the other hand, is the movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration and does not require a membrane for movement.
What is the movement of molecules from greater to lower?
This movement is called diffusion, where molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration in order to achieve equilibrium. The process is driven by the random motion of molecules and does not require energy input.
How would you compare and contrast osmosis and diffusion?
Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane from a region of lower solute concentration to a region of higher solute concentration, while diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Both processes involve the movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration, but osmosis specifically refers to the movement of water molecules.
What movement of gas molecules from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration?
osmosis is the passive movement of a substance from a place where its concentration is higher, to another where its concentration is lower. This applies to gases, I guess
Is osmosis the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration or movement of molecules from an area of low concentration to an area of higher concentration?
Osmosis is the movement of solvent molecules from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration through a semi-permeable membrane, in order to equalize the concentration on both sides.
When a solution as a greater concentration particles?
Diffusion is the net movement of molecules from an area where they are at a higher concentration to areas where they are at a lower concentration. This is due to the random movement of the molecules.
What is diffusion and how does it relate to the movement of material into and out of the cell?
diffusion is the kinetic movement of molecules from higher concentration to lower concentration.
Which terms refers to the movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration an area of lower concentration?
Diffusion, a form of passive transport, is the movement of molecules from an area of greater concentration to an area of lower concentration. Osmosis is a special case involvement the movement of water from an area of higher concentration of water molecules to an area of lower concentration of water molecules. It takes place in all three states of matter-Solids, liquids and gases.
How is osmosis related to diffussion?
Diffusion -Movement of molecules(not water) from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentrationOsmosis -Movement of water molecules from a region of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration through a semi permeable membrane.Similarities- both move from higher to lower concentration and both are examples of passive transport

Can you have diffusion without osmosis?
Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a semipermeable membrane from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration. Diffusion is the movement of any molecules from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration. so yes it is possible to have diffusion without osmosis.
Diffusion is the net movement of molecules from what?
region oh higher concerntration to the region of lower concerntration
What does osmosis do?
The random movement of water molecules through a partially permeable membrane from a higher concentration to a lower concentration.
What is the difference and similarities between osmosis and simple diffusion?
Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane from an area of higher water concentration to an area of lower water concentration. Simple diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. The main similarity is that both processes involve the movement of molecules across a membrane, but osmosis specifically refers to the movement of water molecules.
