Reputation: 1571. E-filed in Early February and it took about 7 weeks to get my refund. It might have something to do with the amount as well. I got back $1,500 from the state which is probably more than most people get, so it could have taken longer for the larger payment.
Diffusion and Osmosis. Diffusion. -the process by which molecules spread from areas of high concentration, to areas of low concentration. Concentration gradient - a difference between concentrations in a space. Molecules will always move down the concentration gradient, toward areas of lesser concentration.
Facilitated diffusion in cell membrane, showing ion channels (left) and carrier proteins (three on the right). Facilitated diffusion is the passage of molecules or ions across a biological membrane through specific transport proteins and requires no energy input.
