What is the Equation for cell diffusion?

Answer Posted / sandy

We can describe the rate of diffusion as directly
proportional to the concentration gradient by

dn/dt=p*a*[dc/dx]

where A is the membrane area and P is the permeability
constant. P is a constant relating the ease of entry of a
molecule into the cell depending on the molecule's size and
lipid solubility.
