Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The process that allows the scent of the skunk to be widely dispersed is diffusion. The scent molecules will move from an area of high concentration (around the skunk's body) to an area of low concentration (further away from the skunk's body) through the air, until they are evenly distributed.
