1/ What is the driving force in the diffusion? Randomness. As far as forces go i believe you can end up with a pressure if you have two different concentration on opposite sides of a membrane. Cells have been know to explode as a result of this effect. Wikipedia.org‚ "The World’s Encyclopedia" really says it best Search ’Molecular diffusion" "Molecular diffusion‚ often called simply diffusion‚ is a net transport of molecules from a region of higher concentration to one of lower concentration by

Outcome 1- Understand anatomy and physiology in relation to moving and positioning individuals 1. The anatomy and physiology are important in relation to the correct moving and positioning of individuals as the anatomy is the physical structure of the body and the physiology is the functions of the body. When working with people with limited or reduced mobility‚ care workers must be aware that client’s movements may be slower and more difficult‚ with muscles becoming weak and floppy. Therefore
