Answer:
If water moves into a cell by diffusion, it is moving from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
Explanation:
- By simple diffusion, small uncharged or lipid-soluble molecules enter and exit cells through phospholipids, moving from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration (down the concentration gradient).
- Energy is not required.
- Examples
- Smell of perfume and incense.
- When you open a soda/cold drink bottle, the CO2 diffuses into the air.
- Soak the tea bag in hot water and the tea will diffuse in the water.
- Small dust particles and smoke are dispersed in the air and cause air pollution.
- In the case of the lungs, when a person inhales room air (aka oxygen), the lungs have more carbon dioxide and less oxygen.
- Therefore, in simple diffusion, oxygen enters the lungs through cell membranes and carbon dioxide exits in the same way.
