Questions and Answers

What is the main difference between diffusion and osmosis?

  • Diffusion occurs in all states of matter, while osmosis only occurs in liquids
  • Diffusion is the movement of particles from high to low concentration, while osmosis is the movement of water molecules from low to high concentration (correct)
  • Diffusion only occurs through a selectively permeable membrane, while osmosis can occur through any membrane
  • Diffusion is a passive process, while osmosis requires energy expenditure
  • How does an increase in temperature affect the rate of diffusion?

  • It increases the rate of diffusion (correct)
  • It has no effect on the rate of diffusion
  • It decreases the rate of diffusion
  • It only affects the rate of diffusion in liquids, not gases
  • What factor has the greatest effect on the rate of diffusion?

  • Concentration gradient (correct)
  • The type of substance diffusing
  • Particle size
  • Changes in temperature
