In 1950, after the Second World War, Canada became the first major country to adopt a floating exchange rate. In 1962, we went back to a fixed exchange rate only to float our currency again in 1970. In all, the Canadian dollar has floated for 42 out of the past 50 years. No other major country has had as much experience with a floating exchange rate. This does not mean that our floating exchange rate regime has somehow outlasted all its critics! For the most part, though, the debate over the years has been about the market value of the Canadian dollarâwhether it has floated too high or too low, especially from the viewpoint of certain exporters and importers.
Osmosis and Diffusion are extremely similar because they both involve molecules moving from a high to low concentration to reach equilibrium. They are different because osmosis only works with water, and diffusion works with all other elements. hope i helped! be sure to follow up with any questions i can assist you on as well. good luck!
Simple diffusion is a type of passive transport where no energy is required for molecules to move out or into the cell. However, there are times when large molecules cannot, on their own cross the plasma membrane and are helped across the membrane by carrier proteins. This process is known as facilitated diffusion.
