Why do living things depend on diffusion?
mylen [45]
Living organisms obtain many of their requirements by diffusion. They also get rid of many of waste materials in this way. For example, Plants need carbon dioxide for photosynthesis. This diffuses from the air into the leaves through the stomata. It does this because there is a lower concentration of carbon dioxide inside the leaf as the cells are using it up. Outside the leaf in the air, there is a higher concentration. Carbon dioxide molecules therefore diffuse into the leaf down this concentration gradient :)
