Diffusion Through a Membrane

Describe diffusion:

• the movement of molecules higher concentration to an area of lower concentration

• the synthesis of molecules higher concentration to an area of lower concentration

• the movement of molecules lower concentration to an area of higher concentration

• the synthesis of molecules lower concentration to an area of higher concentration

Identify the substance/molecule that will not diffuse.

• Starch

• Glucose

• Iodine

During osmosis

• water moves from high to low concentration
• large or oddly shaped molecules move across a cell membrane
• water moves when energy is used
• proteins are built
