The forces governing the diffusion of a gas through a biological membrane include the pressure difference across the membrane (change in P), the cross sectional area of the membrane (A), the solubility of the gas (S), the distance of diffusion (d), and the molecular weight of the gas (MW). Which of these increases and decreases the diffusion of a gas through a biological membrane?
