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

Endocrine system or endocrine disruptor is not something we commonly hear or discuss about in our society. However‚ they both play a big role in humans. Many people have no insight of endocrine system or endocrine disruptor. The endocrine system is glands secreting different types of hormones that go directly into bloodstream to transfer information and instruction to one set of cells to another certain cells. Hormones are the body’s chemical messenger which regulates growth and development‚ body’s

Anatomy and Physiology of Respiratory System Overview Cells in the body require oxygen to survive. Vital functions of the body are carried out as the body is continuously supplied with oxygen. Without the respiratory system exchange of gases in the alveoli will not be made possible and systemic distribution of oxygen will not be made possible. Thetransportation of oxygen in the different parts of the body is accomplished by the blood of the cardiovascular system. However‚ it is the respiratory

Endocrine system Endocrinology is the study of chemical communication systems that provide the means to control a huge number of physiologic processes. Like other communication networks‚ endocrine systems contain transmitters‚ signals and receivers that are called‚ respectively‚ hormone producing cells‚ hormones and receptors. The first step in understanding endocrinology is to explore the meaning of such terms as hormone‚ receptor and target cell‚ and to obtain an understanding of how chemical
