Answer: diffusion

Explanation:

Diffusion is the over all movement of molecules from one region where it is in high concentration to another another region where it is in lower concentration.

This movement continues until the concentration of both regions are equal. Smaller non polar molecules are able to diffuse through the lipid bilayer of the membrane .

Movement through the membrane is dependent on the concentration gradient, that is the difference in concentration between the two areas.

It is also dependent on the size of the molecule

Bas_tet [7]
Because carbon dioxide is a GREENHOUSE GAS, it can trap the sun's heat in the atmosphere. Because the factory is made of concrete, it may deplete groundwater levels overtime by not allowing water to INFILTRATE.

Greenhouse gases trap the sun's heat and this is how we can feel it. Without greenhouse gases the earth's average temperature would be 30 degrees less. Other greenhouse gases include water vapor and methane. Increases in the levels of Greenhouse gasses are responsible for present day global warming.

Infiltration is the process by which water enters the soil and eventually becomes part of the groundwater.
