On which of the following factors diffusion does not depend?(a) Solubility of gases(b) Thickness of the respiratory membrane(c) Partial pressure difference(d) Molecular weight of gasesThe question was asked during an interview for a job.This question is from Exchange of Gases topic in portion Breathing and Exchange of Gases of Biology – Class 11

Answer»

Right answer is (d) Molecular WEIGHT of gases

Easy EXPLANATION: Diffusing capacity depends on solubility of gases, thickness of the respiratory MEMBRANE, partial pressure difference. These all factors play an important role in the EXCHANGE of gases through the process of SIMPLE diffusion.
