Review Sheet Exercise 1 Cell Transport Mechanisms and Permeability Activity 1: Simulating Dialysis (Simple Diffusion) • Describe two variables that affect the rate of diffusion: Two variables that affect the rate of diffusion are size and concentration gradient. The molecular size vs the MWCO size of the membrane can either increase‚ decrease‚ or prevent diffusion. The greater the concentration gradient the greater the diffusion rate due to molecules moving from areas of higher concentration
