diffusion.
selective permeation.
osmosis.
active transport.
Diffusion is the movement of particles from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. The fragrance of baking bread consists of gas - phase particles that spread through the air in the house from the kitchen (higher concentration) to other rooms (lower concentration). Selective permeation involves a membrane allowing certain substances to pass through. Osmosis is the movement of water across a semi - permeable membrane. Active transport requires energy to move substances against a concentration gradient.
