Answer Choices:
Movement of solute molecules from an area of higher concentration to lower concentration
⚪ Diffusion is the passive movement of solute molecules across a space from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
⚪ It does not require energy expenditure, as molecules move naturally along their concentration gradient.
⚪ This process is essential in the body for the exchange of gases such as oxygen and carbon dioxide.
⚪ Unlike osmosis, which moves water, diffusion specifically moves solutes to achieve balance.
