3 Diffusion and Solubility
Diffusion Rate : Surface area x Concentration Gradient x Membrane Permeability Membrane Thickness Surface area Constant Concentration gradient Most important factor Membrane thickness Diffusion distance Thus, Diffusion Rate is proportional to Concentration Gradient

4 Movement of Gases Pressure gradient Solubility of gas in liquid
Temperature (in body, relatively constant)
