Ficks Law? |
1.Fick's law states that the rate of diffusion of a substance across unit area (such as a surface or membrane) is proportional to the concentration gradient. 2. The rate of transfer of a gas through the membrane is proportional to the tissue area and the difference in partial pressure between the 2 sides, And inversely proportional to the tissue Thickness |
