<span>Diffusion. Diffusion is when particles in a highly concentrated area spread out to an area of lower concentration. The membranes of cells are very thin, which allows diffusion of different materials to happen easily. During respiration, oxygen and glucose concentration in the cell is lower than in the surrounding blood. This causes oxygen and glucose to move into the cell via diffusion. Carbon dioxide is produced inside the cell and this makes the concentration of CO2 higher in the cell than in the blood, so the excess diffuses out of the cell.</span>

Answering the question, nutrients and waste both enter and leave cells through a process called <u>Diffusion.</u>

Diffusion is a process that entails the movement of molecules from a region of higher concentration to lower concentration. Diffusion is important in the absorption of substances that the cell required and also the removal of the waste that is produced by the cells.

<h2>Further Explanation</h2>

There are quite some factors that affect the rate of diffusion.

Some of these factors include

  • Temperature
  • Concentration
  • Molecular mass

One of the important processes in the human body is diffusion. Diffusion is very important to the movement of molecules in different organs which include the stomach, eyes, lungs, and kidney.

Diffusion can take place all over the partially permeable membranes, for instance, the surrounding cells.

During the process of anaerobic respiration, the reaction between oxygen and glucose produced carbon dioxide and water as well as ATP.

In the process, the cell must have absorbed the glucose and also the concentration of oxygen and glucose outside the cells is, therefore, greater than those inside.  

For this reason, the total movement of oxygen and glucose will be below the concentration radiant and these molecules will move into the cell through a process called diffusion. in the same vein, the carbon dioxide produced by the cells is a waste product and is removed out of the cells via diffusion.
