This is due to the fact that there is little food (flying insects) for them to eat. If they stayed awake in a warm home, without hibernating, then they would starve. We can begin the bat exclusion process during the winter months.
Mean free path of molecules in a gas. The molecules in a gas are assumed to be in continuous random motion making collisions with each other and with the walls of the container. The mean distance that the molecules travel between one collision and the next is called the mean free path of the molecules.
Simple diffusion means the passage of molecules or ions between molecules in the cell membrane, or without being bound to a carrying protein, moving by means of kinetic energy. Water, urea and water-soluble substances pass through these spaces.
