Diffusion - CORRECT ANSWER-the net movement of substances down a concentration gradient. That
means substances move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration until
the substances are distributed equally
Diffusion - CORRECT ANSWER-substances move from an area of higher concentration to an area of
lower concentration until the substances are distributed equally
Molecules - CORRECT ANSWER-Always in motion
Action of Molecules - CORRECT ANSWER-Random movement is responsible for diffusion
Any factor that effects the random movement of molecules will - CORRECT ANSWER-will affect the rate
of diffusion.
Elevated Temperature - CORRECT ANSWER-What will increase the random movement of molecules
Lowered Temperature - CORRECT ANSWER-What will decrease the random movement of molecules.
How does temperature effect the rate of diffusion? - CORRECT ANSWER-Elevated temperature will
increase the random movement of molecules and lower temperature will decrease the random
movement of molecules.
Osmosis - CORRECT ANSWER-What is the diffusion of water molecules (not the solutes dissolved in
water).
Water Molecules - CORRECT ANSWER-What moves down the concentration gradient
Osmotic Pressure - CORRECT ANSWER-What is influenced by the solute concentration.
, How does water diffuse in concentrations - CORRECT ANSWER-What moves toward the higher solute
concentration.
