Diffusion is the process by which a particular phenomenon --- such as a contagious disease‚ a technological innovation or even an idea --- is spread from person to person over a period of space and time. One method of diffusion is known as expansion diffusion‚ which is broken down into three distinct types. Expansion Diffusion * Strictly defined‚ expansion diffusion is the process of spreading something from one place to another in an ever-expanding "snowballing" process. Expansion diffusion

This morning‚ my daughter asked me what happened to the dinosaurs. "Why did they disappear?"‚ she asked while I was fetching her to school.

I would rather say the definition of love among the ‘present’ generation has also taken a different turn. With growing influence coming in from everywhere-television‚ internet or just by sheer interaction‚ the trends of relationships are changing. There

Why has the number of “millionaire cities” increased more rapidly in LEDC’s than MEDC’s in recent years? A millionaire city is a city with a population of over one million people. The number of millionaire cities is higher than ever before and is continuing to increase extremely fast. Recently the percentage of people living in urban areas has surpassed the number of people living in rural areas. This is due to a large proportion of people migrating to urban areas from rural areas. This is due to

. What is not obvious is what has happened to the American people. It isn’t just the commuters‚ whom we have come to visualize as a supine breed who have got on to the trick of suspending their sensory faculties twice a day while they submit to the creeping dissolution of the railroad industry. It isn’t just they who have given up trying to rectify irrational vexations. It is the American people everywhere. But notice that no one did. And the reason no one did is because we are all increasingly

permeable membrane through a process of diffusion. The movement of a solute through this membrane is called dialysis . Diffusion is a form of passive transport. It is the movement of molecules from areas of higher concentration to those of lower concentration‚ until there is an even concentration. This movement is random because it is a result of kinetic energy. Diffusion is a slow process‚ but there are many factors that will affect it’s rate. The rate of diffusion will vary depending on the size of
