Moving material along certain gradients is necessary for osmosis, diffusion, filtration, and the transport of ions away from similar charges.
Osmosis is the flow of solvent molecules over a semi-permeable membrane from an area of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration Molecules diffuse when they travel from one area of higher concentration to another area of lower concentration The process of filtering involves moving liquid substances through a separating material known as a filter in order to separate solid particles from liquid. Due to the difference in pressures between the solid and liquid substances, this process is made feasible. Because of the difference in electrical potentials between the charges, ions move away from like charges.

For the answer to the question above,
1∙5µm² = ? m²
1m * 1m = 1m² But 1m = 1,000,000µm = 1x 10^6µm 1x10^6µm * 1x10^6µm = 1m² 1x 10^12µm² = 1m² (Now, try dividing both sides by 1x10^12). 1x10^12µm² /(1x10^12) = 1m² /(1x10^12) 1µm² = 0∙000 000 000 001 m² (multiply both sides by by 1∙5). 1∙5µm² = 0∙000 000 000 0015 m²
1∙5µm² = 1∙5x 10^-12 m²
I hope this helps
