1.

Diffusion is the movement of particles from an area of?

a)

Low to high water potential

b)

High to low concentration

c)

Low to high concentration

d)

High to low water potential

2.

If temperature increases, what happens to the rate of diffusion?

a)

Increases

b)

Decreases

c)

Stays the same

3.

As we increase the temperature we are giving the particles more (a)   energy so they diffuse more.
