Diffusion is based on the tendency of molecules to move from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. This process requires assistance in form of energy.
False
Movement of molecules from a higher to a lower concentration is doesn't require any assistance from energy as it naturally happens. For example, when the water content in soil is more than the water content in the roots, the water diffuses into the roots without needing extra energy. Hence, no energy assistance is required for diffusion to happen.
