Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of these factors do not affect diffusion?
A
Concentration gradient
B
Humidity
C
Temperature
D
Surface area
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Complete answer: The electrical charges of the diffusion particles are the only factor that does not have an effect on the rate at which diffusion occurs.

Detailed explanation-2: -The rate of diffusion in cells is affected by factors such as temperature, concentration gradient, size of the molecule, and the presence of a membrane.

Detailed explanation-3: -Diffusion of substances plays an important role in cellular transport in plants. The rate of diffusion is affected by the concentration gradient, membrane permeability, temperature, and pressure. Diffusion takes place as long as there is a difference between the concentrations of a substance across a barrier.

Detailed explanation-4: -Several factors determine the rate of diffusion of a solute including the mass of solute, the temperature of the environment, the solvent density, concentration, and solubility.

Detailed explanation-5: -The factor that does not affect the rate of diffusion is the electrical charges of the diffusion particles. In a solution, the rate of diffusion gets affected by the presence of other particles, the solubility of diffusing particles in the lipids, the molecular size of the substances in the solution and more.
