Question

question 9 of 10 what is the natural tendency of molecules to spread evenly throughout a room? a. osmosis b. active transport c. passive transport d. diffusion

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Diffusion is the natural process by which molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration to spread evenly throughout a space. Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a semi - permeable membrane. Active transport requires energy to move molecules against a concentration gradient. Passive transport is a general term that includes diffusion but diffusion specifically describes the even - spreading of molecules in a given space.

Answer:

D. Diffusion
