Tripling  of the diffusion rate would correspond to a factor 3.

<h3>What are the factors which affects the rate of diffusion ?? </h3>

Substances diffuse when they travel passively from one area of high concentration to another area of lower concentrations . During cellular transport in plants, diffusion of chemicals is crucial. The concentration gradient, membrane permeability, temperature and pressure all have an impact on the rate of diffusion . As long as there is a difference in  a substance concentration on either side of a barrier, diffusion will occur.

So by tripling the diffusion rate it would change to factor of 3.

Lisa [10]

Answer:

One snail for two plants.

Explanation:

One snail and two plants we need to keep a stable environment because the snails help to clean up garden debris by feeding on them and their feaces has nitrogenous nature which is nutritive for the plants. So the plants get nutrients from the snail as well as carbondioxide gas used by the plants for the process of photosynthesis. So we can say that snails are important for maintaining a stable environment.
