Diffusion Diffusion is the free movement of particles (solute) across a permeable membrane from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration (down a concentration gradient). This action controls the movement of solute particles in solution across various body membranes. Diffusion is important in the transport of most electrolytes and other particles through cell membranes. Unlike capillary membranes, which permit the diffusion of most small-size particles down a gradient, c...
