A

In diffusion, molecules move in a random fashion, the net result being substances moving from regions of higher concentration to regions of lower concen-tration.

B

Diffusion is a slow process and is not dependent on a living system.

C

Diffusion is obvious in gases and liquids, but diffusion of slids rather than in solids is more likely.

D

Movement by diffusion is passive as no energy expenditure takes place.
