Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]

A	high concentration gradient
B	high surface area
C	low concentration gradient
D	short diffusion distance

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -The higher the temperature, the more kinetic energy the particles will have, so they will move and mix more quickly. The greater the surface area, the faster the rate of diffusion.

Detailed explanation-2: -The rate of diffusion is affected by the concentration gradient, membrane permeability, temperature, and pressure.

Detailed explanation-3: -Shorter the distance between the material in which the substance is diffusing through, the faster the diffusion rate. It simply has a shorter journey to travel.

Detailed explanation-4: -Difference in concentration affects the rate of diffusion. The greater the concentration gradient, the quicker diffusion takes place. The temperature affects the rate of diffusion. The surface area of the membrane affects the rate of diffusion. Distance.
