The video tutorial explores diffusion, where particles move from high to low concentration areas. An experiment is conducted using Agar Jelly cut into a cube and a slab, both with the same volume but different surface areas. Submerged in hydrochloric acid, the slab loses its color faster than the cube due to its larger surface area and shorter diffusion distance. This demonstrates how cell shape and surface area affect diffusion rates, with implications for understanding cellular processes.
