Absorbation is the term for when water enters the ground because it is the ground absorbing the water.
Explanation:
1. cell membranes are partialy permeable, only allowing passage to some certain molecules.
2. diffusion is the movement of molecules across partially permeable membrane down concentration gradient.
3. the molecules are too big to pass through partially permeable membrane. the concentration of the molecule might be higher in the cell than in the solution/surroundings.
<span>(4) active transport
</span>Active transport is the movement of molecules across a cell membrane in the direction against their concentration gradient, i.e. moving from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration.
Diffusion is is like (spreading around), so it wouldn't smell that strong the further away you got... but you would still smell it
