NO LIMITS TO LEARNING! BELIEVE & YOU CAN ACHIEVE!
What is Diffusion ?
DiffusionParticle net movement from;
a region of HIGH concentration to a region of LOW concentration
High Concentration
Movement of Particles to Low Concentration Diffused Throughout
Equilibrium Lakshmi Sharma Diffusion - Cell membranes and Transport
Think Waterfall !!!!
High Low

Does the diagram below represent Diffusion ?
Discuss for 1 minute in pairs
Answer – Why or Why not is this diffusion?
Explain what is happening to the dye particles at each stage
