No. Gas exchange is when carbon dioxide rich blood is traded for oxygen rich blood. The lungs do this exchange. Diffusion is when a liquid, usually water, is spread out equally from high concentration areas to low concentration areas. Osmosis is when diffusion happens through a differentially permeable membrane, which only lets in certain molecules and repels others (like a potato sack letting out sand but not marbles).

The gas exchange between the blood and the cells of the body is an example of?
Diffusion
What type of plasma membrane transport is used for gas exchange?
Diffusion
How do plants obtain gases needed for respiration and photosynthesis?
partially by diffusion, but most leaves have pores that facilitate the diffusion.
How is epithelial tissue adapted for gas exchange?
Epithelial lining between the alveoli wall and the blood capillaries is thin to provide a shorter diffusion distance for easy gaseous exchange.
How do diffusion of gases differ in day time and night time in plants?
This is because during daytime there is exchange of O2 gas due to diffusion whereas at night time there is exchange of CO2 . This is how diffusion differ in day and night time
What process allows gas exchange in the lungs?
Diffusion
How does the respiratory system move air to and from gas exchange surfaces?
diffusion
What type of plasma membrane transport is used for gas exchange?
Diffusion
The gas exchange between the blood and the cells of the body is an example of?
Diffusion
Is stomata help in exchange of oxygen?
Yes...stomata helps in the diffusion of gas,and oxygen is a gas
Where does Gas exchange take place in the hydra?
It is simpie diffusion through body surface
What is respiratory gas exchange?
Respiratory gas exchange is the diffusion of both carbon dioxide and oxygen from the capillaries to the alveoli in our lungs, and vice versa.
Where in the respiratory tract does gas exchange occur?
The gas occurs by simple diffusion through the cells.
How can capillaries allow gas exchange?
Large surface area + small radius for diffusion.
Why is gaseous exchange continues in the lungs during expiration?
Because to carry out the process of diffusion of gas.
What is the site for gas exchange?
the organ that is involved in gas exchange is the lung. the specific lung structure that is the site for gas exchange is the alveolus which is part of the alveoli, which is found in the lung.
Does gas exchange occurs by osmosis?
No. Osmosis refers to the movement of water only. Gases move by diffusion.
