what are factors affecting diffusion across membranes?

Membrane thickness.,,,temperature and pressure,, concentration gradient,, and surface area... The amount of substance
sudhamsh1:
i think so it's not surface area but it is surface area to volume ratio
It is surface area

RATE OF DIFFUSION ACROSS THE MEMBRANE
branch CELLS
Coming fromPASSIVE TRANSPORT
Leading toSURFACE AREA TO VOLUME RATIO
Factors affecting the rate of diffusion across a cell membrane:
Membrane Thickness:
For Nutrients to diffuse into a cell they must traverse the cell membrane. Cell membranes are extremely thin to allow for the diffusion of materials across the cell membrane.
Temperature and Pressure:
As with any chemical reaction, increasing the temperature or pressure increases the kinetic energy of the particles, thus increasing the rate of diffusion.
Concentration Gradient:
The greater the concentration gradient (the difference in concentration either side of the membrane) the greater the rate of diffusion.
Surface Area:
The larger the area over which diffusion can occur, the greater the rate of diffusion.
